Before we got to battery chargers we filled a couple of screw holes with THIXO Wood. Once it dries we will replace the screws that went missing a few weeks back.
Put a ProMariner ProSport HD6 battery tender on WILLOW's lead acid battery.
First turned on, the tender analyzed the battery condition. Looks like it needs a charge.
Found a nice spot for the tender, better than attaching to a structural member of the boat.
Checked on the battery a few hours late, it seems pretty happy now. Once a month the tender will go through a storage recondition cycle that discharges the battery a bit then recharges it.
WILLOW's bilge pump is located starboard side aft, and has an automatic float switch in addition to the dashboard switch.
