Please advise,
My new Xpress H17 was delivered to me with a starting battery and single deep cycle because I only have a 12V 45# Minn Kota trolling motor.
I hope this is not a stupid question but this is my first "real" boat and I am not sure. Are the 2 batteries next to the fuel cell supposed to be encased in plastic boxes?
Mine are not. They are mounted to the deck, but not in battery boxes. Is this a serious safety issue. It's easy enough to fix.
