Hi I'm new to boating (well had a jet boat for few months before) so pardon me if it's a noob questions;
I just bought a used boat with outboard engine.It came with one marine starting battery. There is room and connectors for a second battery under an other seat.
-Should I buy the same exact battery? (marine starting)
-Should I plug it in or leave it unplugged and plug only if battery no1 is dead?
Will the outboard motor (Force 120HP) produce enough power to charge both batteries if they are both connected?
I will be only using the battery to start the motor and listen radio.
Thanks!
