When I got my rig we up graded from the nornal 24 series to the 27 series which is 12" long. I do have 31s for the trolling motor. My starting battery is a Northern 27 Ev-HD. I run lots of stuff and the 27 has worked fine for what I do. The best battery advice I have ever gotten came when I called the technical hot line at Northern Batteries. Google it. The guy really new his stuff and what all the different letters meant and what type of applications they were meant for. I was amazed how specific batteries have become to the applications. Oh by the way if you look on Northerns web page you will see they make many of the big name ones. My 27 required a different tray and I have to tip it on it's side to get it in the compartment if that helps. I would call northern and tell them what you are all doing and you may determine a 31 isn't needed for what you are doing.

I hope this helps answer your question.

Have a nice night.
