Motor is over rated. I had a minkota on an exfactor. It worked for about 5 hrs and would get me around 5 to 6 miles.

I did not have tags and was never hassled by anyone.

The battery and corrosion on the switch/connections makes the whole set up too much to manage. The battery was too heavy and if you ever get your fishing line in the prop then it's a cluster you know what.

So much happier on the outback.
