Hello All,
I'm looking for some guidance for adding another battery to my boat. I have a Tracker Pro Deep V 17. I'm upgrading from the 12v system to a 24v. This boat only has room for the starter battery and one trolling motor battery that is located in the rear. I was wondering if I could use a storage compartment up front to run my new trolling motor. I know that I have been reading about the extra weight problem this might cause and damage to the batteries, so I'm kind of stumped on the new location for either one battery or both. I hope the storage compartment is an option since it would mean less wire to run (need to save money wife is going to kill me after blowing all this cash on my new setup). If anyone has experimented with this your advice will be greatly appreciated.
