Paul, that's one nice idea you have there
Next best might be a live car. Back in the day we had a 4' round live car tied up in the slip with the boat. Kept it well stocked and it only took a couple minutes to move some "guests" (bait ) into the live well. Then you can stay in bed for another hr!

Maybe this will help.

I ran a shore power line from the dock that feeds a marine GFI receptacle I installed. Then I installed an on-board (Marine) charger that I plug into the GFI and I also run a dehumidifier in the cabin.
So with the GFI, I can unplug something and I have the option of running power tools or something else in the boat at the dock.

To your question I don't think a charger on the battery or batteries will keep up with the draw of a live well over a long period time. They don't put out huge amperage.

Maybe you can find an AC pump to just plug in at the dock to run the tank. I also thought of doing this, (someday). Or maybe a good size converter from the AC to DC and plug the pump right into it.

Things done at the last possible minute are done with the greatest possible information. Procrastination is, therefore, the most efficient means of doing things.
