Hello friends, this is my first boat, and I am figuring it out as I go. I have two live wells in the bow of my boat (1993 monark 1700DC). I would like to convert one of them to a battery storage for a trolling motor. The plan is to disconnect the fill pump (it's a tee fitting I will replace with an elbow fitting). I will put a plug in for the drain to keep any water out.
Has anyone ever done this modification before? Any tips or suggestions. I don't want to ruin a couple batteries due to ignorance.
Thank you in advance!
