Has anyone got an auxilliary (home) battery installed in a Quicksilver 580 Pilothouse. If so, where is it located and how does it prform?
Despite the law stating otherwise, the local Port Capitania in Tavira (Portugal) has insisted that in order to meet their requirement to register my boat with them, I must install a second battery for all electrical items except the motor. This after the boat has already been registered and used elsewhere in Portugal for the last 7 years!! A specific location has been constructed for the existing/primary battery but there's nothing dedicated to a second battery. Physical stability is a primary concern.
Comments and suggestions welcome.
