Tawn, I'm glad you didn't ask this on the "other" fishing site. I was going to post photos of how I replace my batteries, but I didn't want someone to complain that "I was holding them wrong, or they looked too big, or at three years old, they should be allowed to grow older before I replaced them". Should we pick them up by the "straps" or do we lift and cradle from underneath?
Upon close inspection, one battery could be seen "dripping some corrosion" in a few places.
This would have lead to whether or not we should even be using batteries in the first place. If we fished true sailing vessels or powered our boats with oars, we wouldn't need batteries.
Like I said, glad you posted this question over here.
Did you get your boat waxed? Does the boat feel any pain when they rip that wax off
He11, I really am spending too much time on that other site
