That would be a great question for PP. I'm considering swapping out my 2-12V ODP-AMG31M-925 batteries (70+ lbs each) with an Epoch 24V 100Ah Marine Battery - Lithium Trolling Motor Battery. The specs state:

Voltage: 24V
Max Charge Voltage: 29.2V
Operating Voltage Range: 20 - 29.2V

I can see that if the operating range is up to 29v how that could damage the motor running at full speed over time.

You pick up on a great point and one I'm struggling with, 50AH vs 100AH. For many reason I like the idea of going with the 50AH. However I do not have onboard charging. So this is what I do worry about. There is also a nice cost savings with a 50AH over 100AH.

@WranglerJoe What's the percentage of charge after 6 hours? You Viper is a larger boat than my 167 Egret just curious how much is left at the end of the day.

@WranglerJoe and @Goose hope you don't mind me asking the same question to both of you. @Goose you have a 50AH and @WranglerJoe you have a 100AH if I read your posts correctly. Both of you have an onboard DC charger. So that can skew the results of my question but if you're fishing all day on the trolling motor what is the % of charge left in the batteries for a typical day?
