I just picked up a minnkota 55pd trolling motor. I want to put a plug on it and run wires to the battery. In the posts I've read everyone is saying use a high gage wire. My question is if I'm not goin any farther to the battery then the wires that came connected to the trolling motor can I just cut the wires and put a plug on and use the remaining wire for the other end of the plug going to the battery?
I’ve been givin’ all my local buds grief about those for years. Finally bought some and keep buying it. But I’ve also been trying to cut back on beer drinkin’ to lean out this dad bad a little, this qualifies I figger.
