Should I get another battery??

[CPTom21]

I'm going to be installing a 200 watt deck with two 6" speakers, a fish finder, and some led lighting strips(possibly a300watt amp as well). My question is do I need to install a secondary battery?? If so what should I get? Someone I know uses a PWC battery, but I know nothing about these, so I don't know if that's a plausible solution. I have a 1964 Starcraft Bahama 14'.

Thanks,
Tom

Re: Should I get another battery??

Depends on what you have now and how long you run all these things with the engine off. A stereo doesn't really draw that much unless you are blasting it. A 300W amp won't draw anymore than a 40W amp running at the same volume.
