fishon-son:
have 3 all manual reset all 50amp.   

bullet20dc:
yep 50 amp is standard and works fine   Problem I have here is I fish very heavy weed and a 50 will false trip too often. Seems its too close to the edge of tripping on high in thick slop. To reset it on mine its a chore so I went with 60 manuals  as long as your wiring is up to snuff not aluminum  or home depot crap  using tinned 6 gauge marine wire youre good to go

Curt:
6 gauge is the best to use and should be required on all boats with trolling motors. I have no idea why any boat builder would use anything less, except for the fact that they save a couple dollars on each boat. And when you multiply that by tens of thousands of boats, they save hundreds of thousands of $$.

Seriously, if they'd use the 6 gauge wire and add $5 to the price of the boat, nobody would complain.  (nope)
