Gary....you are incorrect, because you have no idea what the duty cycle is on my boat. Between the 1000 watt sonar, Radar, Multi Function Display's, vhf and hf radios, my AGM's are tested a lot more than the usual amateur station. As an electrical engineer, I have a pretty good idea of the various applications using batteries as E/I source and the associated mathematics.

In the shack and with solar power, they charge and never have a large current discharge put on them like a starter motor.
