Assuming you have a 12 volt trolling motor, you can run 2 12 volt batteries in parallel to get more time on the water. Here is what you need to do:
Get two leads. Hook the positive from battery 1 to the positive of battery 2, and hook the negative of battery 1 to the negative of battery 2. Take the positive lead from the trolling motor and hook to the positive on one of the batteries. Then take the negative lead and hook it to the negative post of the other battery. You are now set to increase time on the water.
If you are running a 24 volt trolling motor and using two 12 volt batteries, you need to run the batteries in series. to do so, again, take two leads. Connect the positve of battery 1 to the negative of battery 2. Then hook the positive of battery 2 to the negative of battery 1. Take the negative lead of the motor and hook to a negative post on one battery. then take the positive lead to the positive on the same battery. All set to go.
