Courtesy of the US Army I find myself in northern NY with my 170CC which I bought with dreams of going back to the west coast of Florida to chase redfish and trout (I am a true florida boy). A lot of my fellow officers and I spend many hours on lake oneida in syracuse or the St Lawrence River/Lake Ontario just enjoying beer and skiing (park my boat and ski behind his speedboat) and looking at the scenery (AKA Yankee Woman).
To get to the point I don't want to add a second battery and was think of buying one of the Solar chargers from west marine. Would it provide enough power during a 12 hour day to run my stereo without draining my battery and leaving me stuck and trying to hand/pull crank my Yamaha four strok 60 hp (really doesn't impress the women)? Anyone have any luck/experience with one of these chargers? Also, I was thinking of moving my battery to under the console to move a little weight from the rear to the front to assist in keeping the nose down? Every little bit helps I would think.
I searched old posts and couldn't find anything on solar chargers.
Thanks
