The monitor function would be a good deterrent for having to paddle off the lake.
There's a great plethora of battery voltage monitors that work well for knowing what the voltage is. But what the OP is basically trying to accomplish is an amp meter in order to backwards figure the amp-hours remaining on the battery. FWIW, a simple 12V trolling motor will work continuously on almost anything over 6V. But it just won't have the thrust as the voltage and amp-hours lessen.
Gotcha. The Victron monitor I have can be set for battery capacity and counts up to/down from that number, letting a user know how much capacity remains.
