Hello all.
First time post. We are moving up the Qld coast on our 10 meter Elite cat. Left yhe Gold Coast a couple of weeks ago. Currently anchored at 1770 after coming in fromvLady Musgrave.
Im having problems with batteries getting low.
The house batteries are 2 banks made up of 2 ? 6 volt US 2200 golf cart batteries rated at 232 amo hrs. When charging they are over 13 volts. sfter charging yesterday after noon for instance they settled back to 12.2 volts. Last night we had the freezer running , anchor light and a tv for about 2 hours. This morning the batteries are at 11.1 volts. I have had these type problems since purchasing the boat 2 months ago, hence the new battery banks. The charging system has been checked ( 1 ? 80 amp alternator on each engine ) and given the all clear. For various reasons I will be here at 1770 for probably another week. Does anyone know of a marine electrician in this area. Any help and advise will be appreciated
