Battery disconnect for storage

[PhilR]

Hey Andrew,
On my 2011 R27, what bettery connection(s) should be disconnected for winter storage. I'm going to leave the batteries in the boat for the winter.
Thanks, Phil

Pull the clamps off the negative posts so each battery is not connected to anything, including each other...
If stored outside, be aware you have no bilge pump then...

Thanks denny-o. It will be stored in an unheated warehouse....gotta keep the sun of that blue hull.

If you have the solar panel option be prepared to do a restart when you hook back up. Not too difficult.

If the boat is on the hard over the winter with power available, how about leaving the batteries connected and the charger on?? Allan

Didn't think about the solar panel needing a restart. I'll holler for help in the Spring. The boat will be in a warehouse....I don't think they will give me access to power.

I leave mine in the shop with shore power plugged in through the winter.
