congrats on the new boat, a 14 footer and 5 horse johnson with a 24 thrust electric motor is all a man neads,
I have a 15 horse johnson and 30 thrust motor on my 14 footer, and to be honest, I never kick my motor over 2 or 3 when fishing.
I do have to have an extra battery, the bigger the thrust the more you use on the battery...
there are a couple lakes in my area where the lakes are 3 miles across to where I like to fish, and with a 15 it takes me about 15 minutes to get there... I only hit those lakes a couple times a year,
are ya having any luck on the water? I havent been out in a couple months. havent had the urge lately....
if ya have a pic of the new boat that would be cool to see...
