I am thinking about adding some extra amp hours for my existing 2008 185 Sport boat. I currently have the existing starting battery which is 1 year old and in fine shape. I was contemplating some replacement options to get some additional capacity for when we anchor out for the day, play the radio, or add a second bilge pump for safety. My options:
1) Completely replace the existing battery with a combo style Group 24 Deep Cycle/Starting battery. This should afford some extra capacity without taking up alot of space. Storage is at a premium in this boat btw.
2) Add a second battery (same group 24 deep cycle) and a battery switch.
Anybody have opinions on what is the way to go?
