3. Batteries

There are 3 ways to recharge your batteries.

Engine:

The batteries will need to be recharged as often as you deplete them. Conserving power will

result in less time needed for charging, so turn off systems that you are not using. Your

batteries will charge when the engine is running at 1400rpms or more, whether sitting at a

mooring or motoring to a destination.

•Check the battery levels and make note of them before charging.

•Run the engine at 1400rpms or more for 1-1 1/2hrs twice daily.

•Shut the motor off.

•Wait 15 minutes before checking the battery levels, (directly after turning off the motor they

will remain in an excited state for about 10 minutes).

Shore power:

There are two selector switches at the navigation station which need to be switched to shore

power. Ensure the battery charger 110v breaker is also on.

Hold button and move shifter

to disengage transmission.

Generator:

Switch the two selector switches at the navigation station from shore power to ship (generator

power). Ensure the battery charger switch on the 110v panel is on.

In all instances, ensure the battery charger switch on the 110v panel is on.

Battery Switches:

Domestic (Main) and Engine battery switches (Locker at entrance to stbd aft cabin).

Battery switches must remain in these positions unless instructed to do otherwise.
