This boat uses two marine batteries. One bat-
tery is designated as the start battery. The
start battery is connected to the starter cir-
cuits on both engines to provide current for
the starter motors.
The other battery is designated as the house
battery. The house battery provides power
for the various accessory circuits on the boat,
such as the circuits for lighting, bilge pump,
blowers and audio system.

In normal operation, keep the “START” and
“HOUSE” switches in the ON position. Keep
the “EMERG PARALLEL” switch in the OFF
position. This setting allows both batteries to
be charged automatically while the engines
are running.
NOTICE:
Do not turn the
“HOUSE” switch to the OFF position if the
boat is moored in the water as it will pre-
vent the anchor light from functioning.
