Battery Charging

Each engine has an alternator which charges the battery, or batteries and also provides electrical power to
the boat. Some models may also use an external power source (shore power) to keep the battery charged.
A fully automatic AC battery charger (Figure 3-33) is optional on the Launch 22, Launch 25, Launch 28,
Corsair 25, and Corsair 28. Depending upon the model and options chosen, your boat may have as many as
three chargers installed. The batteries are charged according to battery switch position and power demand
(refer to "Battery Powered Systems" on page 44).
The charger(s) is protected by a circuit breaker on the main circuit breaker panel.
A manufacturer's operation booklet is supplied with the vessel that has this option installed. This booklet
contains additional information which you should become familiar with.
