tipptruck1 Posted March 28, 2016 Posted March 28, 2016 I would just pull the batteries. Charge them in your place, or if you have a deck. Charge them there. Quote
Super User Fishes in trees Posted April 3, 2016 Super User Posted April 3, 2016 Why not? Wiring issues? Security issues? If you have an on board charger, I'd try buying the apartment manager a 6 pack and explaining the situation. If you are paying for covered storage and can't plug in the charger - that's messed up. All part of the challenge of being a boat owner, I guess. If you want to drop a bunch of money on solving this issue, several years ago In-Fisherman magazine wrote about a stealth charging system that would route power from your alternator to charge your batteries while you drove to the lake. Other than it sounded expensive, I don't know very much about the particulars. For more information, call the guys at In-fisherman. I have better luck calling that magazine than I do with sending an E-mail and expecting a response. Call prior to noon (their time) and if they are in town they're probably in the office then. 1 Quote
