I purchased my first boat last year. When we were putting it away for the winter I had the sound system upgraded in it. I had a 10" subwoofer, 4 new 6" speakers, and a Rockford Fosgate M600-5 Marine 5 Channel Amplifier to power everything. I am wondering about the need to have a separate battery to power the sound system or if I should be alright with just the main battery? I have not even seen or heard everything installed yet, so I just want to be prepared for next year. I spend a lot of time at a sandbar enjoying the music, and want to make sure I am not setting myself up to be stranded out there. How quick will a battery typically drain, etc?
I appreciate any tips/advice from anyone more experienced with the issue. Thanks in advance!
