I use an 80# Terrova on the front of my 22' tritoon. It has the remote which in my opinion is a MUST HAVE, since you can steer and control the boat from anywhere. Spot lock is awesome, get that for sure. The motor has been flawless after the 4th year of use, but the batteries are a hassle. I've used lead acid and have considered switching to lithium because I hear they are longer lasting and require less maintenance. The lead acid have required replacement every other year but when they work, the motor is awesome. I like the 24V option since my boat has a battery compartment just big enough for 2 12v's. I wouldnt mind a little more power, but even for my big boat, the 80# does great. With the new mini lithiums coming out, maybe Ill upgrade down the road.
