We are often asked for advice concerning battery choice on boats. Surprisingly the answer is simpler than expected:
The Murray Yacht Sales Team recommends using AGM batteries purchased from a vendor that will be available if warranty replacement is needed.

Vendor options: Consider where the boat may be moored next year if you have a warranty situation with a battery. West Marine is a good friend while traveling by boat.
Notes: when changing batteries note that the battery charger settings must match the batteries and that it is bad practice to mix and match battery types (example AGM & Wet Cell) in the same bank.
