Heh, much activity in this section of the forum. I see my post about the boat I ended up buying a few down on the page. Well, hopefully someone could help me with my question.

I'm wanting to put a second battery in the rear compartment (where it came with one from factory) but there doesn't appear to be enough room with the oil injection tank there and all. Since live well recirc and main gps are wired into the main system, I want a second battery for insurance that I don't run down my starter battery again.

I've actually had the battery get drained to the point where it wouldn't turn over the optimax. I was getting towed in by a little skiff with a 50hp e-tec when I decided to swap the battery for one of my charged troller batteries, then it started right up.
