Ted, I've been happy with the marine battery I bought from Batteries Plus. The trick is to keep it charged, which I do with a solar charger.

There are two lights in the cabin and running/mast lights that will be drawing power from it. I am also looking to occasionally use it for the electric trolling motor incase I am on the city lakes which won't let you use a gas motor. Any thoughts on the best battery to buy? All suggestions welcome! -Ted _______________________________________________ http://mailman.xmission.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/montgomery_boats When posting, remember that there is no privacy on the Internet!
