Hi - new member here - great site and amazing people sharing all their knowledge.
I would like some opinions on the trolling motor setup in my new to me Princecraft.
The boat has a Minkota Edge 12V trolling motor - works great. former owner had the two onboard trolling batteries hooked up in parallel. The boat has 2 sets of wires - one for each battery and I assume I could rig a switch to change from one to the other if I were to wire them separately.
Is there any advantage in have them separate or in parallel. The boat has a switch at the front that allows you to choose to display the charge of either, but I don't think this allows for switching between the two batteries thought - I need to investigate this before I change the way they are connected.
Thanks!
