My wife thinks so! eek Anyways... I wouldn't go quite that big on the electric motor. You have a fairly small boat and you might not be able to troll slow enough,if need be.I have a 15' aluminum and I run a Minn Kota Endura 30lb,and speed 2 is usually the right speed. I can go up to speed 5 but it's rare I go past 3. I can also troll all day on a group size 27 battery,if you get 50lbs thrust you probably need 2 batteries to fish all day. Do a search for trolling motors.. we had this topic up about 3 weeks ago,same question was asked,and there were some good responses.
