Getting ready for summer

One of the most common issues we see happen every spring is battery problems.  Unlike your vehicle battery that gets used everyday, boat batteries spend a lot of time unused.  The key is to start using your boat as soon as it is delivered in the spring.  Letting the engine charge it will make it last longer and prevent it from going dead.  It is very common for a boat to be delivered fully charged, but not used for a week and be completely dead.  Battery tenders really help maintain your battery for the long term.
