[quote Fishtales23]I spent a lot of time yesterday reading posts on the float tube board. I came across a post that stated that the MinnKota Maxxum 40 uses less juice than the Endura 30 (I think that's what is said).
Anyone care to comment?
Thanks![/quote]
Go ahead and get the Maxxum. It will use less juice than an analog controlled motor like the Endura, and I'll bet up to 50% less. On a kickboat you'll not be using it on full throttle very much, if at all. And it being 45# thrust you should be able to go a couple days before charging. Plus if you get an AGM battery, it'll be even better.
