This trolling motor cable extension kit allows for the quick and easy lengthening of motor wires without impacting the performance of the trolling motor. Adding a trolling motor to your boat can quickly change the weight distribution, and handling characteristics, especially of smaller craft like kayaks, canoes and Jon boats. This weight distribution is further complicated by large, heavy marine batteries which often double or triple the weight of a motor. The new wire extension kit by Newport solves this Issue by allowing you to place the battery anywhere in your kayak, Jon or other boat! allowing you to correct the uneven weight distribution without risk to you, passengers, or the trolling motor. A thick, 8 gauge cable ensures there is no performance loss through the extended battery cable between the battery and the trolling motor. High quality brass connecting hardware maintains a solid connection and electricity flow, so you get every last pound of thrust.
