on our first tige we added a second deep cycle and put it up front in the observers spot to run the amps. simple 1/0 gauge from oem deep cycle to front deep cycle- pos to pos/neg to neg. then wired the stereo distribution blocks off that battery.

unless you are looking for days of play time, we had 3 large arc amps(ks 300x2/600x2/1200x1) running off both deep cycles and did run 6 or 7 hrs at the sandbar with no issues at all. onboard charger was the best mod on all my boats.
I am looking to add 2 L16 6v just to be sure I can run the stereo with the Boat off for a few hours without worry.
I am going to try and keep this stereo pretty tame. I’m thinking a ks300.4, ks300.2 and a SQ2200 for the bass amp.
My old boat had 4 of the L16, isolated from the 2 12v for the engine, And were plugged into a charger. But that was overkill even for that stereo and that was twice what I am wanting in this boat.
Only problem is they are so tall they can only go in the back compartments, taking up room for my ballast bags. However I suppose they will supplement their space in weight at 125lb each
