Default ELECTRIC ONLY LAKE - BATTERY SUGGESTIONS, PLEASE

Add at least 1 more battery, and add an on-board charger, Get a long, heavy
duty extension cord (12 ga) with a GFI safety circuit. I would plug the cord
into a GFI protected outlet as well, to be extra sure.

You could also bury 1" plastic conduit and run 12 ga wire out to your dock
for a GFI outlet.

Need to get a new battery for a small pontoon boat used on a small
electric only lake. The motor in a Minnekota. Was hoping to learn
about some light weight battery/batteries, or some way of not having to
carry those batteries on a regular basis to be charged. (Not aging
gracefully, and the bad backs aren't getting any better with the
years.) Appreciated any suggestions! thanks
