A second battery is certainly nice, but it's probably not a necessity.

A portable jump pack can be had for $60 and has utility outside of just the boat. Most of them have cigarette-lighter outlets as well, increasing the utility.

You'd have to be spending all day at a sandbar to risk running your battery low (IMO).

This is one of those things that might be worthwhile if you can get it done for $400 or less. Beyond than, I'd probably reconsider it (you can also always add it later).
