40lb Riptide getting hot

Hi All
I have a 40lb transom mount riptide and my question is two fold.

Firstly when the motor is run flat out the orignal minn kota battery cables get warm, not very impressed as charge is been taken from the motor. Is there anyway of replacing these cables with heavier ones?

The other concern I have is related to the temp of the motor itself. When running flat out for about 15mins the motor gets quite warm nd it retains the heat for around 1/2 hour. Not sure if this is normal or not.

Thanks
Daniel
