A heavy duty set of jumper cables has the wire you seek. Cut off the clamp things and its the perfect gauge and perfect length.

You need 6 Gauge battery wire. Preferably with a 40 or 50 amp breaker in between the two sections.
You should find it at West Marine.

Here is an example of a circut breaker Chuck mentioned. Great info he shared. There are others out there as well. http://www.basspro.com/60Amp-Circuit-Breaker-with-Terminal/product/120829053327580/

Attach it as close to one of the batteries as you can. Mine is like 6-8" away and mounted inside the battery compartment. Without it you run the risk of burning up your Trolling motor.
