Re: How many Amps does my24 volt Motor Guide FW FB 71 Draw??
The only rating available will be "maximum" current draw which is the amount of current drawn during the first 1/2 second during startup, or with the rotor stalled or near stall (as in tangled with weeds). That current draw will be around 42 amps. What it draws at any speed less than wide open is not published because there are simply too many variables -- such as boat size, type, weight, load, wind, etc.
