I have a 1999 Stingray with a 1999 Force 120 outboard on it. The engine runs great but the only documentation I can find on it is a very generic shop manual that covers all Force outboards.
I am relatively new to boating and want to put a fixed spot or some other type of light on the front of the boat because we have to run the river at night occasionally. I need to know the capacity of the alternator in order to determine what type of light I can safely install with only the one battery system.
I am wondering if I have to make a 20-30 minute run at night what would be the largest amp draw I could get by with and still be able to crank the boat in the morning? I have no other accessories on the boat that would add to the draw.
Thanks in advance!!
