These batteries should be of the size and capac-
ity recommended by the manufacturer of your
engines. These specications should be consid-
ered to be the minimum size battery required.
Consider increasing the capacity of the batteries if
you will be trolling, drift shing or have extensive
electronics on board. Larger batteries will give
you additional capacity to operate the baitwell,
DC accessories and electronics at low speed when
the charging system output from the engines is
minimal. Refer to the engine owner’s manual for
additional information on the battery requirements
for your engines.
There are three remotely activated battery switch-
es and one remotely activated emergency parallel
switch located in the systems compartment. The
remote battery switches and emergency parallel
switch are activated by special switches in the
helm switch panel. Each battery or the emer-

can activate (enable) or deactivate (disable) the
switch if the remote switch or relay fails. The
manual override is a yellow knob on each battery
switch that can be pressed to manually activate
the switch or rotated to reactivate remote activa-

The normal operating position for each switch is
the “Enabled” Position. Refer to the instructions
printed on each switch and/or the battery switch
operating manual for additional information on
the remotely activated switches.
