I have a 19’ Seapro. Who has a 19’ and with a trolling motor? Obviously a 112lb thrust would be great but requires 36V vs a 80lb thrust which only require 24v. I would prefer to only have to add two batteries vs three.
Give me some thoughts and options por favor…
I have a 24v 80lb thrust on my 24ft bay boat and does just fine.
I have a 20’ Pioneer and spoke with the manufacturer. They recommended the 112# with 72" shaft length bc of the bow rise. I am not wanting to add 3 batteries, but will be happy to have the extra power and longer lasting run time

Not sure if this will help, but my brother-in-law has a 24v 70lb thrust on his 18ft. Key West CC…he says it’s more than adequate. I have the same size on my 17ft. Key West CC and it’ll throw a wake behind it…I would think an 80lb would be enough for your 19 footer in all but the worst wind and strongest current.

Brian , I have an 80# on my 19’ bay boat with a T-top it works great except a 15 knot wind and or a very big fast tide will effect it’s performance some but am overall happy with it
