2800 SCR, Spot Light

Did the 1997 2800 SCR come pre-wired for a spot light? Can I use the power supply for the windless for a spot light? Is running a power supply for a spot light hard to do with this model?

Alternator voltage flucuation, 1997 4.3 Merc

When running the volt meter is at 12 volts, at idle it is 13 volts and sometimes bounces between 12 and 13. How do I trouble shoot this?
