Left Patsy Lou at Sportcraft this afternoon. She will be fitted with a Honda 50 and a 5. I am certain the 5 will troll best in my situation, with no need for trolling plates; after hearing from you and others, the 50 is the one for me. (2012 50 and 40 are equal in weight)
Also I'm getting double batteries, with the starting battery aft and deep cycle forward. All gadgets are to run off of deep cycle. This was the setup they recommended and it sounds similar to several here on C-Brats.
I asked them to put enough cable on the batteries so I could move them as necessary in their respective compartments (fully from port to starboard.) Again, this is based on the good advice about trimming with load from many knowledgeable C-Brats, in this topic/thread and elsewhere in the forums.
Now I'm on pins & needles like an expectant father in the waiting room. If all goes well I'll be on the road home this week with Patsy Lou and her new babies.
Many thanks to everyone for all the help. Patsy and I will be in touch...
