Would it be possible to rig a permanent cable connected to a car or truck battery which terminates at a two-wire trailer connector? My idea is to run a wire from the battery to a convenient place where a 12V sealed acid battery could be connected using a trailer connection harness that connects to the kayak battery. Batteries could be recharged while driving or even while the vehicle is parked at the camp site.

Now this is getting good My Tundra already has the trailer harness setup and so I wonder if I just need to add additional wiring, a fuse and some clamps and never have to open the hood? I'm an ER guy and by no means any sort of an electrician, but this sounds pretty cool........ not that opening the hood is a lot of work.... but would be cool run it off the current trailer harness setup (if possible)
