Fourth Season with Electric Engine

This past weekend we launched Initram our 35 foot C&C for our fourth season with her. While fellow club members struggled to get old diesel and gasoline engines running after a cold winter in storage, we simply flipped a switch, and our boat was ready to go. The four sealed AGM batteries have made preparations for winter at haul out and launch very simple. All we do is charge up the batteries to 100% in the fall at haul out. On this our fourth year launching with the electric motor system, once again we turned the switch on and the monitor system showed that the batteries were 100% charged up and ready to go.
