Per Minn Kota's website a 30 amp charger would fully charge the batteries in 4-6 hours. That would be plenty powerful enough for my boat. Only addition I may add in the future is a hydrowave. Other than that it's just two HDS graphs and a 24v TM. Not putting anything else on this boat. Save your money on the Hydrowave, I took mine off and it's back in the box on a shelf in the garage.

I'm looking at the MK 330 PC This is the one I got for my agm batteries. Great charger, I just leave it plugged in and only unplug it to go fishing. Just make sure you have an effefient size extension cord and use a gfi plug and you will be good with which ever charger you get

Do I need any additional equipment in order to switch to the new bank charger? Or will all of the existing wiring work?
If you can't find em wind em.

Good to know. Guess it ain't that effective.
