2006 Hunter 41DS House Bank Charging off alternator

[twenger]

Is there an internal system in the '06 Hunter 41DS that enables house bank charging off the alternator?
It appears to me that only the start battery is charged by alternator and the house bank is only charged by shorepower/charging system.
Any insight is welcomed.

On a previously owned boat it is a crap shoot as to what has happened during the previous 19 years and now. We would expect that the system would follow the original plan but it must be verified. That is one of those new owner actions you need to assess. It is like checking for sail condition or oil in the engine.

The owners manual has an electrical circuit diagram to give you a place to start.

NOTE...Page 63A is the beginning of the Electrical Systems. There were several optional systems offered. Each boat was tailored to the desires of the buyer.

House Battery charging is NOT normally done on Hunters.

You must add another device to charge them off the Alternator.
