Doh!!! I cannot believe I said gas dryer. I meant electric.

That is correct. If a trolling motor draws 30 amps at 12v for a certain
thrust, a 24v system will only draw 15 amps for the same amount of thrust.
This is hypothetical. In practice, it will be slightly different. That's
the advantage of a gas dryer using 240 volts rather than 120 volts in that
the amount of current will be half.

A 24 volt system only uses half the current to do the same job as a 12

volt
system, a 36 volt system uses 1/3 the current.


So a 24 volt system only needs 12 volts to do the same job as a 12 volt
sytem? Hmmm....
