    • Lithium-Ion: Lightweight and long-lasting but more expensive upfront.

  • Battery Banks: Determine if your boat requires separate banks for starting, house loads, and trolling motors.

  • Charge Management: Use smart chargers designed for marine batteries to avoid overcharging and extend lifespan.
