Going to replace my batteries
Going to replace my batteries this year. Currently I only have 2 and they are not deep cycle so I am going to replace with 3.
I am thinking about putting 2 (of course) for the house but also want 1 of those to be the starboard cranking battery.( I do have a battery cross over switch if it gets to low to crank so it can be cranked off of the port battery.) Then the 3rd one for the port starting battery.
I will put the main house usage on the 1 battery and just minor stuff on the starboard starting battery.
I would like to use deep cycle marine batteries for all 3. Is this alright. That way I can use the starboard cranking battery to run the flybridge electronics and the port battery keep only for starting. Also this way all the batteries will be of the same type and age.
I am looking at the Ever Start MAXX 29D Marine 875 CCA and 125 Amp Hours. Would this work for what I need. We only spend 1 night on the hook at a time and only need for the lights and frig.
What are your comments / thoughts.
Thanks
