trolling motor

Ok, I did it. Hit the "place order" button on Minn Kota pontoon power drive 68 , also ordered the I pilot add on.. Now just need batteries and order a charger and put it all together. I'll have a month to get it all in place before my 5 day stay on the lake.

:nana :thumbsup I just got my trolling motor back up and running. Boat control and fishing is SO much better! It's a non-negotiable for me at this point. It needs a good trolling motor with a remote that I can steer from anywhere in the boat.

I get free used deep cycle batteries from work sometimes. How close are you to Waxahachie? I can’t guarantee when I will have some batteries, but I just hooked a friend up with a 150AH 12V battery for his Suntracker. (103lbs). I work all over TX, eventually. I was in Kileen Friday.

Great offer, thanks. I'm too far away and I will have to get this done on a pretty tight schedule.
