I just got from UPS my 24 volt minn kota.
I have a question about wiring the batteries in series.

I have 3 batteries on my boat. One for the motor. And 2 others one under each console. Right now I have 2 down riggers on the boat and each one is wired to its own battery. These are the batteries I want to wire togather for my 24 volt trolling motor. But if I wire them in series + bat one to - bat 2 then then - bat one to motor and + bat 2 to motor can I still wire my downriggers like I have them?

Thanks for the info.
