    80 or 112

    I think I know the answer to this question but here goes. Going to finally get an Ultrex right after Christmas. I have a 200 202 should I get an 80#or 112#? If 112# where did you guys put 3rd battery? Any pictures would be great.

    I would recommend the 112 if you fish lakes with strong current, or big lakes that might get real windy. If not, the 80 will be plenty, and less battery weight and space to worry about.

    I had a 80 and went to a 112. I fish a lot of deep water and like the extra power. I stood my batteries on end and used foam to hold them from moving. There is a picture somewhere in on of my post.

    I have a 98 203, when I went 36volt I down sized to 3 group 24 deep cycles. Two on each side, plenty of running time.

    I fish some current so I think I would regret not getting the 112. So I think that I will just have to get creative and find a spot for batteries. Thanks guys!!
