battery / dc layout
I have a schematic from the owner's manual which show's all the DC circuits but nothing on the batteries.
Any help would be highly appreciated because I need to remove some of the batteries while still living on the boat and in the water.

Re: battery / dc layout
If that is the case, any chance those 4 are 6 volt batteries wired in series/parallel?
We just need more info.

Re: battery / dc layout
Have five series 31.
I have the same questions as to which ones of the 4 first ones coming from aft forward power what. I have replaced over time all of them. I always was under the thought that the first 2 were for each engine and the 3rd and 4th were House and bow thruster. 5th was Gen alone.
My VOLTMETER up top showed low voltage and slow engine turnover so checked all batteries and found #1 and #3 dry so replaced the two of them. Voltage is fine now BUT after further inspection it appears it is the #1 and #3 that supply the engines!!!? Wish the OWNERS MANUAL gave more info.
