Hello,<br /> What size battry do I need to have to power the Minn Kota Riptide 50 cd/s transom mount? Can I get away with one twelve volt deep cycle?<br /><br />Best regards,<br />Steve Gill

Sure -- as with any battery, you can't go too big -- only too small. Buy the largest capacity that will fit the available space and have a good time fishing. But then if you only fish for an hour or two at any one time, a large battery would not be necessary. But then again, the difference in price is not really that great so why not go "big". Even simple things get complicated eh?
