Battery life - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

Thanks guys.
I've just looked up the specs of the FF and pump.
The hummingbird 596c FF amp draw is 400ma, and the bilge pump for the custom bait tank amp draw is 1.4-1.8 (not sure why the number is so much different and what it means

).
But if one battery is enough to last me 6-7 hrs session then I'll be happy. If not then maybe I'll need to add another 6v for the tank alone.
I have an old kayak and limited space to I'd like to minimize as much as possible.
