I just took delivery of my new 270 SLX - I love the boat but have had a bunch of "small" problems. Here's one that is baffling me:
I got the shore power w/ battery charger option with boat. Last week I left the boat w/ shore power and battery charger on and the battery selector switch on battery 1. When I returned the refrigerator was barely running and the battery was almost completely dead and didn't make a sound when I tried to start the boat.
It seems as though the refrigerator (12V only) is draining the battery - even when the shore power/battery charger is on.
Is it me or shouldn't I expect the battery with the charger and shore power on to support the refrigerator??? What would be the point of the shore power otherwise on this type of boat!! Has anyone heard of this?
