[QUOTE="FuzzyGrub, post: 489305, member: 3438"] I know that MG has had the same warning on their trolling motors, so I've always unplugged. FF is always turned off, but mine can handle over-voltage. My son's new boat has a 90/65 Yamaha with much more electroncs than any of my other outboards, so I contacted them to make sure there was no issue. They indicated it has over voltage protection, and no need for a disconnect switch. I've used Guest chargers for years, but wth the new boat trying out NOCO chargers. Very happy so far. I have a 10A X 2 on trolling motor batteries and a 5A on the starter battery, given it has an alternator and stays charged during our river runs. For me, with multiple batteries, it is too much of a hassle moving a portable one around, and like to get them recharged as soon as I'm home. I sometimes cover the boat right away, which can make it a pain to get a portable off or switch to another battery. [/QUOTE]
