You want the stranded wire not the solid wire. It takes the vibration easier.

You are correct, in my searches what keeps coming up is ANCOR 6 gauge TINN coated copper stranded wire
its not cheap around 5$ a foot for the red/black and wire.
From what I have read going with undersize wire reduces the efficiency of your motor.
I removed a 65lb thrust 24 volt Min Kota that always seemed under powered for my boat.
I figured that I would not have to replace the wire from my batteries only jumper going to the 36 volt system.
I looked at the wire and it looked to be 10 gauge. So I kind of wonder how it would have performed with the correct wire.

I bought mine at the local Minn Kota dealer. Told him the length of the run and figured they would know the wire I needed. It in charge that much it's a lot easier than doing all that research.

Where I live there is no local anyone so I end up doing research on most everything

This is where I got mine. They will make any length you want and even put terminal ends on if you want.

This is where I got mine. Would buy from again. I just ordered the length I needed and the ends I needed. They were custom made and shipped quickly

I've bought it from stokley's in the past.
