    Battery upgrade on Kayak

    That means you have a 20' run. I didn't realize a trolling motor draws as much current as Scott says, I'd go by what he said and use a larger cable.

    2002 bay liner capri wiring woes

    I'll start with one question. You said "The circuit breakers (on the dash) are good, verified by checking the continuity". Did you verify there was 12v at the breakers?

    Battery upgrade on Kayak

    How much current does the motor draw? I'm guessing you're talking about a very short cable run on a kayak. You should be good with 10g wire.

    Mercury xr2 not turning over

    How did the oil look? Was it oil color and hopefully not milk chocolate color. If it looked normal you are probably good to go.
