    Do you think that motor would troll around a 21.5 ft. fiberglass boat in lake erie in 2 ft. waves? Can you run 2, 12 volt batteries in series to reach your 24 volts?

    Yes.



    This pic doesn't show up too clear, but you just wire the (-) of one 12 volt to the (+) of the other 12 volt. Then hook the motor to the remaining (+) on the one batt. & the remaining (-) on the other battery.
    An inline fuse is a good idea too.

    Hope that makes sense.

    Troll - Yes
    Speed Demon - No
     
    Might have a run time of about 4 hours on full batteries, depending on wind.

    Thanx for the help fellas. Not exactly sure what I'm going to do yet. Right now I'm running a trolling plate which seems to work for a while, but that old motor likes to conk out sometimes at an idle.

    Still have the motor?

    Better too far back, than too far forward.
