Do you mind sharing how much they cost?They are pricey. I got the 80 lb thrust model. Retail on it at Cabelas was $1899. I had a 10% off coupon, used up nearly all my banked Cabelas points, and then used the money from selling my old boat. It ended up costing me about $300 out of pocket after using all those other discounts, points and saved funds.
That's not too bad, I was lucky to get one similar to yours from a guy on the site that let me make payments, so that worked out great for me. My 80 lb thrust motor is 24 vt how about yours?
Sounds like you have it figured out, if you have the room for both batteries to sit side by side, you will only need one short jumper to set it up for a 24vt system.
