I have a MinnKota Maxxum 24V 80 lb thrust trolling motor. Serial#M276MK00043, model#1368580. The build date of this TM is Nov. 2, 2013. My question is I ran the TM for possibly an hour with little to no stopping at around a 75-80% power searching for a lost item on the water and as a result overheated damaged(melted) a portion of the plug and receptacle. Is this a normal happening? The TM plug & Receptacle that was being used was a Marinco Style Boat TM plug and receptacle.
