Trolling Motors for NFO Rampage
#14
I feel like we're in same boat,for lots of years I had those heavy batt. from wallmart,but I just started using small car battery,for short trips,about a mile"mine have a 3 year warrante,"get 2",,there just so light.My boat felt much faster with the lighter batt.I have an older model motorguide transom mount with a 48" shaft which I turned into a bowmount conversion [Image: yell.gif]54lb thrust,I also have a 34lb motorguide which also pushes good,and my vintage sears dualprop trolling motor 48" shaft also ,each motor is 16lb for a combined 32lb,each motor runs independent,plus motor comes with a bright light,and voltage gauge,its true what they say about how things were made better in the earlier days,much more thought was put in.Just more food for thought if you put a trolling motor on the bow,its much ,much easier to control in the wind or current,with a transom mount the bow may swing around left to right.motor guide has a new motor which you can also reverse the head,I gave them the idea for free,just to make our lives easier.I hate to brag,but I won bragging rights,you see I'm in the lead for this year 443 challenge,this is a new picture I just got scanned today enjoy.
