And then obviously it comes with a starting battery.

I pretty much agree with what's been posted, but you're asking too large of an open ended question sans details.

I have a 20 footer, 4 sonars, 2 31 series AGMs & 3 31 series flooded trolling motor batteries, 2 motors & 3 battery switches.

A family member has a 16 footer, 24v trolling motor & 2 7" sonars & always used a single cranking battery without issues for years.

Boat size, electronics being looked at, USCG rated load capacity, intended battery sizes & composition are needed before anyone could really give suggestions.

It's similar to me saying "I have a car-- what size boat should I buy?" Just way too vague.

(sorry)


Happy Fishing!
