Advise Needed on Trolling Motor

[BassVol]

My Johnson motor is shot. I have an 18 1/2 ft Javelin with an Evinrude 150 on the back. I have found a deal on a Minnkota Edge 65 pd thrust trolling motor. Would this motor handle my boat OK. I definately don't want it under-powered.

Thanks for the help

If the OMC troller did the job, then the 65lb thrust should be an improvement. OMC's had 48 lbs. of thrust in stock form.

That should be plenty. I have a 20 foot Javelin with a 225 on the back and I run a Minnkota 72lb. planty of power.
