That would be fun, we like cruising around the lake. Yes, we are down the first cove on the left before you get to the dam.

Another “Howdy” ATX com the Houston area. Love Lake Travis. Driller is the resident expert for Travis. Looks like you got a great deal! Make sure you get your second battery and conditioning/charger installed if you don’t already have them onboard. Driller forced me to do to it so only fair I pass the task along. 😂

Thanks for the advice, I'll have to check that out. Do you have a brand recommendation?

I think that "forced" might be a little strong. However, peer pressure can be a mightily influencing factor. I would not think of going out with a single battery. Even with a jump pack, too much can go wrong.

Thanks for the links, I'll have you take a look at mine when we meet up on the lake. It appears I have a factory two battery setup.
