Default 6hp Merc kicker/ 12v charge or not

I have a 6hp merc kicker and want to know if I can wire it to put charge to my 12v battery when fishing?

Thanks in advance.

Yes, you just need to buy the charging kit, couple hundred bucks last time I asked. They don't put out many amps while trolling, but it won't hurt.

Cool Re: 6hp Merc kicker/ 12v charge or not

Charging option output is as follows ...

Alternator Amp Optional 4-amp lighting/2-amp charging
Alternator Watt Optional 50-watt lighting/25-watt charging

This information is for the 4 stroke model ...
