Places/spots to charge your batteries

Featured Replies

Hi all,  i have an issue concerning charging my boat.

 

i live in an apartment and cant charge my batteries and my storage space wont allow it.  Are there any other places where u could plug in?  Any other ways to charge your boat battery?

I would just pull the batteries. Charge them in your place, or if you have a deck. Charge them there.

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.
