Why Are Dual Purpose Batteries the Best for Center Console Boats?
I am reading a book called "Powerboater's Guide to Electronic Systems".
The book recommends using two dual-purpose batteries if the boat is a center console. A dual purpose battery is supposed to be good for both cranking the motor and serving as a house battery. I am wondering why a dual purpose battery is the best kind for a center console, but not the best for a cruising boat (he recommended a combination of a starting battery and a deep cycle battery for a cruising boat). What are the reasoning behind this? Won't a combination of a starting battery and a separated deep cycle battery is just as good for a center console? My center console is having two dual-purpose batteries just like what the book has recommended. I guess this is good. I just don't know why this is good. Thanks in advance for any info. Jay Chan |
