Rich:
We had a pair of the Walmart deep cycle 27 batteries (because of the
price) and used them for 2 seasons.....gave them to Wayne to use in the
club's boats which might have a chance to keep them 'in charge' .
Have had the Group 27's deep cycle GNB's from Maritime Battery in
Burnside ever since......from memory maybe $120 per battery....batteries
weigh 55 lbs. each......compare $ to weight with the competition....and
MB are super when it comes to warranty.....or in my case, when I do
something stupid like let the electrolyte get low.

Thanks, Joe. For the mostly inshore sailing I anticipate doing with
the odd week on the boat, I think I'm going to stick to good old basic
lead acid technology. The current Surrette batteries have lasted 14
years and are only now corpses because I neglected them last fall.
