BATTERIES AND ELECTRICAL 

Locations of Batteries and Components 

Your boat is equipped with 3 batteries, which are located under the deck access 
door. Two batteries are reserved for the engines, while the other battery is used 
as  a  house  battery  to  power  the  boat’s  electronics.  The  electrical  system 
consists of the batteries, ACR system as well as two electrical switch panels.  

NOTE

: AGM style batteries use a different technology than traditional Lead-Acid 

batteries. Always install only AGM compatible equipment such as battery 
chargers or inverters. 

The main electrical panel is located below the helm station and provides power 
and  electrical  safety  through  fuses  to  all  of  the  electrical  systems  onboard  the 
boat. The main fuse panel also includes the battery selector switch. 

The accessory switch panel is located at the helm station is used to power all of 
the  accessory  electronics  onboard  the  boat  such  as  the  navigation  lights.  See 
the HELM section for more information. 

Automatic Charging Relay System 

Your  boat  is  equipped  with  an  automatic  charging  relay  system,  which  will 
automatically  combine  the  batteries  when  the  engine  is  running  for  charging, 
and isolate them when the engines are off. With this system, you will not need to 
use the battery selector switch to charge the batteries.  

Battery Selector Switch 

The  boat  uses  a  set  of  battery  selector  switches,  which  provide  isolation  for 
each  battery  and  also  provide  the  ability  to  have  a  backup  in  case  of  a  dead 
or  weak  starter  battery.  When  in  port  and  running  accessories  such  as 
entertainment equipment or  pumps, the  selector  switch  should  be  set  t o   t h e  
O N   p o s i t i o n .   When  leaving  the  boat  unattended,  the  selector switch should 
be in the 

“OFF” position.  

The battery switches also contains a COMBINE position, which can be used for 
emergencies  in  the  case  that  your  engine  batteries  are  discharged,  but  the 
house  battery  still  has  power.  The  engine  COMBINE  position  combines  the 
engine batteries, while the main COMBINE position combines all three batteries. 

NOTE: 

Avoid leaving the selector  in the  

“COMBINE” position,  as the  weak 

battery  will drain the charged battery, leaving you with two weak batteries.
