Well since it won't be long before the lakes freeze here i got the boat out of the water.
Now i was thinking for next year of adding a bilge pump and a fish locator. Now i assume these run off of marine batteries. I have an 86 8 hp rude, no electric start. My question is; will i have to charge my battery often, or add something to my motor to charge the battery, or will they not draw enough anyway to have to even worry about it. Just charge it up in spring and let it go.
I'm not all that electricaly inclined, but i have rebuilt the motor and do all the other service on it so i think it is a job i could handle
