Hi all,

I'm going from a 12v motor guide 46lb thrust to a MinnKota MaxPro80 24v. I already have two batteries for the trolling motor. Tell me if this sounds right....

I'll be connecting positive from one battery to the negative of the other battery then using the remaining positive and negative to go to the trolling motor. Does this sound right? Also, my boat ('05 Nitro)has an extra wire running from the batteries to the front of the boat. Does this offer another wiring option? One last question.....How different are the mounting holes from Motor guide to MinnKota?

Thanks,
Buzz
