Purchased our first boat this past September and only took it out roughly 5-6 times. It is a 2005 Pro Team 185 Bass Tracker with a Motor Guide 12V 45lb thrust trolling motor on it. We fish one lake that is electric only, unless to load boat, and got caught one day when the wind picked up and almost didnt make it back to the ramp.
I am thinking of upgrading to a 24V 70lb'ish. Thinking of upgrading to this one http://www.fieldandstreamshop.com/p/...dg7045xxxxxfel
Wondering if the Minn Kota holes would possibly match up to my Motor Guide holes or if I would have to drill new holes? Also I am sure I will have to upgrade the wiring but to what size?
I have a 3 bank 12V charger on board and wondering if I have to get a new charger or if I can make the one I have on the boat work? Last question, is I am not sure which battery is running my electronics, my TM battery or my cranking battery, but if it is my TM battery how would I do the wiring to run my electronics?
Sorry for the silly questions but somewhat of a newby to the newer boats. Thanks
