Nice Boat!

Be careful with the 24v TM at > 70% thrust....it could easily throw you out of the boat especially if your slightly off balance...

Is the indicator missing or broken? replacements are cheap...
regardless you will get the hang of it pretty quick..i don't even look at the indicator any more... with the pedal flat and parallel to the deck the motor will be facing straight ahead, press with your toes and you go right, with the heal it goes left....

With such a light boat the TM batteries will last you all day and then some...i have an 80# 24V with group 29 batteries and have yet to run out of juice pulling around a 17' deep vee loaded with all my crap and 2 fishing buddies....

sounds like you have the necessary gadgets to find the structure...i would try and cover as much water as you can and focus on transition areas....cant go wrong with swim baits....

Oh and wear your PFD!!

Good luck
