It's only a third the current for the same power, which makes a big difference in lots of good ways. But your case is special, because you already have the hard cans, props, linkages, and through-hulls. If you put in trolling motors you'd also have to do things like air or oil compensate them, probably get new through-hulls, etc. So given the bird in hand, it's probably worth just looking around for a new motor that can fit in the existing can, or have the old one fixed. <o:p></o:p></p><div><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal>Best,<o:p></o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><br>Alec<o:p></o:p></p></div></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><div><p class=MsoNormal>On Fri, Sep 22, 2017 at 11:08 AM, Brian Hughes via Personal_Submersibles <<a href="mailto:personal_submersibles@psubs.org" target="_blank">personal_submersibles@psubs.org</a>> wrote:<o:p></o:p></p><div><div><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-bottom:12.0pt;background:white'><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:black'>After several attempts to clean up and reinstall Harold's 75 amp 36v rear thruster, it's clearer done.
