What size trolling motor do I need for a 10 foot boat?
When you’re in a small Jon boat or dingy, you can use a trolly motor that’s similar in size to a kayak motor. I think a longer shaft is the way to go. The best motor for a small Jon boat is a 42′′ shaft and 55 lbs of thrust.
How big of a trolling motor do I need for 12 foot boat?
The bigger the boat, the more thrust it needs to move through the water. The thrust of the motor is what it is rated by. A 55lb thrust motor works well for a boat that is between 12 and 16 feet in length.
How big of a trolling motor do I need?
The thrust needs to be at least 2 lbs. for every 100 lbs. of fully loaded boat weight. If the wind or current is a big factor in where you fish, you’ll want to increase your thrust.
How fast will a 55 lb thrust trolling motor go?
When you have a bigger boat, you will need the larger-sized motor. If you don’t, your boat won’t be able to hit anything.
Can a trolling motor be too long?
Too long a motor shaft is not good. If the motor shaft is too long, you can’t put the motor in the correct position. The environment beneath the water as well as the propeller can be damaged by long shafts.
Can you have too much thrust on a trolling motor?
It’s not possible to have too much thrust and go fast. It’s more useful and helps the battery life. Many people try to save money by going to the electric trolly, but they regret it.
How much horsepower do I need for a 12 foot boat?
Depending on the size of your boat, the range is 3 to 5hp for small 10 to 12 foot boats, and up to 60 to 75hp for longer 18 to 20 foot Jon Boats. You should follow the manufacturer’s suggested power for your boat.
Can a 40 hp pull a tube?
A small person on a single-seater tube can be towed by a light fiberglass boat with a 35 to 40 HP engine.
How big of a trolling motor do I need for a 16 ft boat?
If your boat is less than 16 feet, a high-thrust 12-volt model will suffice. It’s the only way to go for hassle-free boating if your boat is any longer than it used to be.

The bigger the rating, the longer the battery will be able to power a motor. A 100 hour battery can provide 25 Amps of power for 4 hours before it runs out of energy.

The top of the motor needs to be submerged at least 12 inches under the water in order to ensure adequate power and to prevent noise which will scare fish.
How big of a trolling motor do I need for a 16 ft boat?
