Lund 1875 pro v bass change troller batts to lithium

[Mill Creek]

I have 3 group 31's running my ultrex on my 1875 pro v bass. Can anyone comment on any handling issues, on this hull, changing from flooded to equivalent 36v lithium?

Currently pops right up on plane and I'm worried about taking that much wt out of the middle of the boat.

Depending where the batteries are placed, it can and likely will mess with the weight distribution of the rig if they are in the back. It's actually a big reason I have not switched out my crank and accessory batteries over to lithium yet. If the hul currently runs good then I would stick to AGM batteries and just call it a day for now.

I have the larger 2075 (so not an identical comparison), and replaced 3 of my 4 AGM batteries with lithiums. I have not noticed any change in how the boat performs or handles.

You could pull those batteries and put back in the weight of the lithiums as a test.

As the batteries are in the middle of the boat I doubt it will make any noticeable difference.
