[C38] Battery replacement

[Max Soto]

Hi Richard, 
I have a car N70 starting battery installed on the port sail locker, and a two group 27 95amp Interstate deep cycle batteries for the house bank. 
The alternator is wired directly to the house bank and the starting is charged via a charging relay. 
I don't have a refrigeration system, so I don't need a bigger house bank. I do have a microwave oven and a windlass, but I start the engine every time I use any of those..
Both banks have flooded batteries, so everything has the same battery technology. Simple and cheap to replace. I just have to check the electrolyte level every now and then. 

Hope this helps!
