    Portable battery jump starter

    Any one carry one of those portable battery jumpers for their boat? If so I'm looking for a reccomendation on what to get. Ran into a problem Saturday where I wish I had one.

    Jumper Cables

    Jump off the trolling motor battery that has 12 volts before it makes the jump to 24 or 36 volts. On mine it's the inside(far left) battery. I haven't had to do it, but I always know which one I can jumpstart from incase I run into that very situation. A good set of cables is all that's needed. I will say I have done the very thing your asking about twice with a heavy duty jump box my wife got on QVC. Wife says they sell them all the time on there. The brand is Xantrex. Iv'e jumped lawn mowers, boat motors & Chevy trucks with it.
