I have a 12v-100ah lithium, purchased in March and realized I needed a bigger battery (dedicated) for all my electronics. Battery is practically new, only one charge cycle. Prefer local pickup but...
Mark, looks like on the ZX150 the back deck is fiberglass not metal like it's bigger brothers
Are you guys running the original ultrex, if so mine did the same until I updated to the Quest. I believe it's the latest software that running on the original ultrex that's meant for the quest. IMO
2023 ZXR19 with 4 lithiums and 1 agm..didn't loose any speed as far as I can tell. I only lost a total 74 lbs after adding a lithium dedicated for electronics and 3 lithiums for trolling motor..still...
Congrats! Welcome back!
Glad you figured it out....yeah the 2 black wires zipped tied together are the negatives for your electronics, with the single black wire being the negative for your boat accessories
Do you have the 2 breakers with the red trip buttons? There's a red indicator that pops out when tripped. Maybe you accidently hit the trip button when removing the starting battery...in my 2023...

Caracal STS with a Merc 250 Pro SX
Experienced, Feel The Rush ride today!! Smooth dry and fast boat. Hit 78mph in a flash. I am amazed! I only managed 68mph when I drove it. Definitely a boat I'd have to learn how to drive.. trim is...
Justin, I really appreciated the conversation we had earlier! Very informative and you answered alot of the questions I had.
Thank you sir!

Yes sir, that's a given..
RonCat,
"For me fishing docks it is great being so far forward."
With that being said, how much forward even with the foot pedal set all the way back, is it still farther forward than the normal...
I'm seriously considering moving over to a Bass Cat, with the Caracal STS being my choice. Why should I buy a Bass Cat?
Let me hear it?
I went with a ZXR19, same 97" beam, same deck width as it's big brothers...and yes definitely fun to drive...71 mph tournament loaded with me
Mark, are you moving up or over? My long time salesman no longer works there.
Definitely!

I decided to just run lithiums for my trolling motor. Could bring myself to install the 12v-125ah as my starting battery for my 225SHO. Just sent it back for a refund. I am adding another 31 group...
Thanks for your reply.
The manual for Minn Kota Ultrex Quest actually recommends lithium batteries for optimum performance. There are so many people with different results when it comes to running...
Oh my! How much speed did you lose? Is that the only reason why you didn't like the lithiums?
Okay, I'm hearing some boats lose top end speed and others don't, some guys even report they gained 2-3 mph
Did you go with lithiums for your trolling motor as well, if so, did you lose any top end speed?
