Jeep...

I am running a Motor Guide HVT on a separarte battery. Carries 44 pounds of thrust and pushes/trolls my 16' Northwood around the lake great! As far as the battery charger, I have a Minn Kota 10amp. Plugs right in at the work bench and takes about 7-10 hours to fully charge the battery up. Bought both at Sportco for under 180 green ones two years ago.

If you plan on trolling all day, better buy two batteries. One battery will last about 4-5 hours on continuous use.

Hope this helps!
