Crackpot, welcome aboard. Yeah, 55 pound on a 12/24 setup would ba good minimum. Rule of thumb is go as big as you can afford. I dunno about the auto pilot, I've heard good & bad, up to you on that.
You don't really have a "24 volt battery". Two twelves are tied together at the switch (or, the troller's plug, depending on how it is set up) to get you the 24. A 3 bank charger will charge your starter battery and your two trollers if that is what you have. Now, Al Warner can give you a much more detailed lesson in this, PM Esox Maniac if you need technical explanations, he's one of the best. Good luck with it and enjoy your new boat! m
