Earlier this year, I installed an on-board charger on my boat to charge the
starting and trolling battery.

Question: Is is ok to leave it plugged in all winter, even if I'm not
planning on using the boat until about the first of March? Or, should I only
charge it every once in awhile?

The charger I have is one of them that suppose to continually condition the
batteries, but I cannot find the owners manual to see what it says about
storage.

My boat has been at Elm Hill for the last 11 years with the
Perma-Charger full time. I have changed the batteries twice during this
time. It may not be a good idea to leave them over the winter but since
I fish all winter and I hope we can try a float and fly trip this
winter, I intend to leave everything ready to go. I talked to your wife
the other afternoon and you sure have a nice looking son. He is lucky to
have a father who fishes.

Happy Holidays.
