Hi guys,

I have three batteries on the port side and one on the starboard. I "think" the starboard one is for the autopilot (I was told). Does the onboard battery charger charge all four batteries?

Hello,

The three batteries on the port are (starting FWD to AFT) house, house and then engine. The battery on the STRBD side is your thruster battery. When the charger is on all batteries get charged once they have reached their full charge. It will start with house, then engine and finally thruster. If one or more batteries are lower then 9.5v it will keep the ACR closed, Automatic Charge Relay, you would then have to charge the batteries with a portable charger. Hope this helps.

Thanks,
 
Okay good to know. thanks for the help.

I would be disappointed in the guy that told you it was for the autopilot. Why would someone who truly doesn't know the answer offer up one at all?
 
Agreed on the wrong answer. I'm sort of stuck between a rock and a hard place right now on getting help on the systems in the boat. You guys are helping out for sure.
 
The manual is a available for download on this site. It should help you a lot.
