I finally got around to doing some much needed wiring maintenance on my boat. Fixed all the nav lights, horn, etc. Anyway, I run a 2003 Yamaha 8hp F8MSHC as my kicker. It is not connected to my battery at all, and I fish all the time keeping my gps on, and dragging cannons from 200+ feet of water.
Obviously, this makes me nervous.
I could be wrong, but I don't believe this motor has the capability to charge a battery. Boatland in Campbell River says they can install a rectifier ( I think ). Anyone had this done? And what is the associated cost?
