Do'nt know if I should share this with you ... but ... I found another battery on the boat last weekend .. instead of the 2 75A 600Ah I thought I had, I've in fact got 3. One was hidden under a bunk and was discovered when I was checking the propeller shaft seal ...

Surprising what some people keep under their bunks/beds!
or in their closets!!!!!

Yeah very funny. Don't tell me - you thought that the original couple were exclusive hooked up and now it seems as though the battery hiding under the bed is going to start something!

1800Amp Hours of power is enough to run a navy.

blow me down with a feather

Bugger me! You mean I've got it wrong again! Maybe I'm using batteries as ballast! Sod it there was me busy copying the numbers off the case and I've still screwed it! What does the 600 mean .. they're Tudor Z10 batteries .. I'm off to the pub!

Well at least I know whom to contact when I need to jump start my Jumbo<s>.
Either that or you could hook it up to a big light and anchor your boat next to the Tricolor and make like a lighthouse, maybe then they might stop bumping into it?
