[QUOTE="airshot, post: 505514, member: 1183"] If you have a dead battery, you should disconnect the dead battery before jumping with anything !! A dead battery can have an internal short which can/ will instantly kill the charge on whatever your jumping with. For the original poster....why not have two batteries in your boat to prevent a dead battery from getting you back ?? A start only battery for the main engine and a house battery (deep cycle) for all electronics other than main engine. This way, you will always get back!! Then, all you need is a set of jumper cables if both batteries get low. Today, most boats have main engine and house batteries just for these reasons, when you have heavy accessory draws. [/QUOTE]
