Explain the Basics of a Marine Boat Battery?
Question?

Q: Can I hit you up with an answer. A very green boater I am, recently buying a Boggy Creak 16' center console boat. It has two west marine dual purpose batteries installed near the middle of the boat. I am looking to get a brief summary about marine batteries? All right now, that is my pending circumstance.

All right now, a big thumbs up. Make me smile.

Answer!

A: Come on in, certainly, we will answer this. Let us give you our ideas. Your West Marine battery is most likely a lead-acid type of battery and should provide great cranking power if you keep it charged up. However, when you are anchored and fishing at night, the lights, music, and any other phantom load stealing device is draining your battery system.

With a dual system, you simply switch to either battery A or B once you turn the engine off. Then, switch to the other one just before cranking it up.

A good day of boating generally means a good day with your Marine Batteries! Good call, as understanding your Boggy Creek dual purpose setup is very advisable. Alrighty, a correct way to try. Out of here.

All right now, everyone gets better with practice. Perfect way to end the day.
