Wind can blow them around alot.Buy at least a 40lb traxxis.I say that because you don't say .How big your boat is.Cheap ones can burn thru bat power very quickly,hence a traxxis type

10’ long just borrowed a 40lbs thrust for a couple hours i was surprised at how well it pushed it. Time to buy on perfect little set up for quad in lakes.

I use a welded aluminum deck to pull my 16' fishing inflatable around.
I put twin 24 volt banks with a selected switch in the front pod.
I also welded a aluminum box for an additional 24 volt trolling motor on the stern, use it to push me quicker down the lakes I cannot use my outboard on.
I have a flasher and bilge pump built into the rear box, and a front mounted sonar on the front pod as well.
