Took the Gun out today with the wife for the first time since getting her home from LOTO. … then we put in at Huntington Harbor. Took her down the coast to Newport Harbor for lunch and then a sunset cruise back to Huntington. Big thanks to Ed at the beginning and Tank at the end for my boneheaded newbie phone calls. Can’t wait to take her out again!!
Glad to see that the boat ended up with someone who is truly enjoying it.

I’ve only had the Top Gun out twice, once for the sea trial and secondly yesterday. I was instructed at the sea trial to put the port and the starboard battery switches in the “both” position. I just read the instructions on the battery switch panel and now I’m thoroughly confused as it says to only do this in an emergency. I’ve seen conflicting arguments all over the interwebs. How do most on here run there batteries? And while I’m thinking of it, I can’t find the battery charger even though the survey indicated it has one.

I run mine the way the instruction at the battery switch tell you to. Never had any problems running it that way. I’m sure there will be varying opinions on this.

Mine are pointed towards each other.

I always thought the two alternator's voltage regulators will fight each other, although I thought I read somewhere some battery switches have separate terminals to isolate the alternators. On my boat, I run them separate. Port engine-battery 1, SB engine- battery 2.
