1982 J8RCNR Possible battery charge system

[Jroyston93]

Hello Folks Im new to the whole boating world and got myself in a bit of a predicament with a boat i just purchased second hand.
Needs a little repair waterpump, gaskets, etc which im gonna tackle on my own but im curious to if i can charge a battery for a trolling motor with this model i do have wires coming from flywheel that lead into a few different spots am i able to somehow turn that into a charging system like i see other people do with other motors? i attached a copy from the manual of my wiring setup

Yes by adding a rectifier it will charge a battery.----Keeping the battery charged for a trolling motor will not happen.

so it wont trickle charge a fully charged battery giving it longer run time?

No as TM will take out more than motor can return..
