It would be great to top off batteries as we travel. We often can't top them off before we leave, and trailer at least 2 hours and up to 6 hours. Has anyone ever set up a power feed from the truck to the boat batteries? Any potential issues? (Damage to either alternator or charger?). Two ideas come to mind to do this: one, run a wire pair the length of the trailer and add a plug line near the battery switch. Two: put a plug in the fore deck near the windlass and use the windlass wire to send the power back to the batteries. Thoughts? Thanks, MM
