battery required. Consider increasing the capacity of the bat-
tery if you will be trolling, drift fishing or have extensive
electronics on board. Larger batteries will give you addi-
tional capacity to operate the livewell, washdown, and elec-
tronics at low speed when the charging system output of the
engines is minimal.
The battery selector switch is located near the helm. The
switch feeds the engine and the 12-volt accessory panel. 12-
volt power can be supplied by either battery # 1 or battery # 2
separately or by both batteries simultaneously. The selector
switch also directs the charging current when the engine is
operating.
For example: When the switch is on battery # 1, the engine
and the 12-volt system will be supplied power by battery # 1.
Battery # 2 will be isolated and in reserve. Battery # 1 will
be charged by the alternator. When the selector switch is on
battery # 2, the engine and the 12-volt system will be sup-
plied power by battery # 2. Battery # 1 will be isolated and in
reserve. Battery # 2 will then be charged by the alternator.
When the selector switch is on “BOTH,” the batteries are con-
nected in parallel so the engine and the 12-volt system will be
supplied power by both batteries. Both batteries will be
charged by the alternator. The “BOTH” position should only
be used when starting the engine, as this requires extra elec-
trical power, or when both batteries are low and need charg-
ing. Otherwise, it is recommended that the selector switch be
set on battery # 1 or battery # 2 when the engine is operating.
While in port, while trolling, or at anchor, the battery selector
switch should be on either the battery # 1 or the battery # 2
position. This will keep one battery in reserve for starting the
engine. The battery switch should be turned to the “OFF”
position when leaving the boat unattended.
Note: Current is supplied to the automatic float switch
for the bilge pump, CO detector and stereo
memory when the batteries are connected, even if
the battery switch is off.
12-Volt Accessory Switch Panel
The main accessory switch panel is located at the helm. The
circuit breakers that protect the accessories are located in the
panel near the switches.
