replace the wires on my trolling motor?
I used to put my battery up on my casting deck and hook my TM up to it directly,I now want to put my battery in the stern.Using 6 gauge wire,it will be a 36feet(approx.)circuit and my concern is the exsisting wires on the TM don't look to be 6 gauge,are they going to be a weak link?I hope I don't have to replace them.
The TM is a 50lbs thrust 12V MK powerdrive.

No. I use that same trolling motor and it will work fine. Just make sure that you use a quality connector. I use the Sierra ones from Cabela's. Cheap and reliable. Have fun !!!
