[QUOTE="fishbone, post: 127881, member: 2533"] First of all, you don't want a deep cycle battery on the outboard. You want a high output cranker. The on board charger is the way to go. Each battery will draw, or be provided, the voltage/current needed (separately) from a 2 bank charger. I just finished installing a 3 bank charger today. Battery 1 = engine, bow fish finder and accessories, battery 2 = trolling motor, and battery 3 = main cockpit Humminbird unit (and as a back-up to battery 2 trolling). Each battery is charged separately from the charger. If you buy a new battery for the engine, then a 3 bank charger, you would have a trolling motor back up. [/QUOTE]
