Default Batteries for trolling motor on a jon boat

Why is nobody picking up on this setup?

My extremely limited experience with a 12' Jon boat was that I had
never been in anything so unstable in my life. I've got one that
someone gave me and I'm going to set it up with a trolling motor as
I already have a deep cycle battery for it. However, based on that
limited experience noted above, in addition to the required life
jackets for the passenger or two, there WILL also be a life jacket
attached to the battery itself, just in case. :^)

PS: The towing water-skiers comment was pretty funny and with this
light of a boat, probably not far from the truth. :^)
