Location: Mauston, Wisconsin | You should consider dual batteries with an A-B or both switch. When charging or running it's in the "both" position. When fishing go to A position- then you have a fresh battery in B position when/if needed. This is a very common salt water setup. A little extra insurance can go a long way!
Out east a lot of guys think if you have marine radio & "Sea Tow" you're coverd. That's only true as long as the marine radio has a good battery to call "Sea Tow" and your GPS is working or you know your exact position, i.e., lat & long..
An automotive audio type of filter capacitor will certainly help peak surge conditions. But if you need that you should also consider other battery alternatives, such as larger battery or, parallel batteries or parallel batteries with A-B-Both switching.
