Just run the radio "memory" wire directly to the battery (+) and remember to
fuse it!

Hello all,

I have a Tige 22v riders edition. Great wake boarding boat, we love it.

I have 2 questions - I hope someone can help me out w/.

1. It has a main power off switch in the engine compartment (A twist
knob). Ive noticed that if I dont turn this off at the end of the day and
the boat sits until the next weekend the battery will be dead. I cannot
seem to figure out where the draw is coming from. Ive tuned everything
off in the boat. How can I track down the "leak".

The real pain in the ass thing is each time Im done for the weekend and I
turn the main power knob off - I lose my radio stations each time I do
this which leads me to my next question....

2. The boat has 2 battery compartments. Id like to add a second battery
so the radio works off a seperate battery vs the main one the rest of the
boat uses (ie starter, lights, etc...). (I want it be transparent as
well - ie - I dont want to have to switch some switch) Is there an idiots
guide out there somewhere that shows how to do this? I can pretty much
build anything and am mr fix it so installing something wont be an issue -
but for some reason me and mr electricity dont get along all that well -so
a well drawn out electrical diagram would be really really really good!!

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks
