Halfhitch, That is exactly how I understood them. Seems pretty straightforward doesn't it? Dan

SkunkBoat, I have no personal knowledge of this beyond what I received from Grady. I believe it is as you describe; an aux charging line from the motor, isolated in the motor, with an overload breaker/switch near the #2 battery. I have seen no freestanding isolators or combiners installed in...

Ky Grady, I am embarrased to admit that I haven't given it a good run at full speed. I have, however, run in the high 40's and am confident that it will break 50 on a calm day, or with a bolder skipper. It is nice to have the power offshore (Gulf of Mexico) with a crew of five, lots of ice and...

There is a 100A breaker in the aft port side battery compartment that has been in the '0' position since I got the boat new last year. As far as I can tell, all systems are operating normally. I asked Grady White about it an the replied that it was a battery isolator switch. I am including a...
