Location: Tinley Park, IL | My 17.5 V-hulled Lowe is bigger and heavier than the X-170 and I have a 55 lb Power Drive. I have never had a problem of using up the battery charge in 1 day. Actually, I am amazed at how the battery status usually says "Full" after fishing all day. The only time it wasn't powerful enough was a tournament I was fishing in 40 mi/hr winds. Sure, an 80 lb TM will be faster but it's not necessary. Based on my experiences, if I had that boat, I would get a 55 lb, 12-V trolling motor. Good luck |
