Yeah, some of those trolling motors have amazing power. I used to have a little 12' Sears jon boat and put a 30 pound thrust Minn-Kota on it, and it was faster than the little one-horse air-cooled motor I had on there at first, and much quieter. The trolling motor would eat up a battery, though. This was about 25 years ago, so I know the motors now are much more powerful and efficient.
