Hi MC, AC may be superior for use in a trolling motor, but, ................ Batteries are only DC! ...........do you want to drive around trailing a shore power umbilical cord so you have AC on board? The next possibility is to run a small Honda generator set that produces AC power. Then you have AC for the trolling motor, but can you stand the noise? All this does is add complexity and cost: generator set; fuel for the generator; added weight............ Connie
