Re: Batteries
Having done many many on the Tow Boat... the border year is 3 years of use. The 4th year is "barrowed time".
My personal rule of thumb is a cared for battery lasts 3 seasons reliably. I use West Marine batteries too. Skip the exotic $300 glass batteries. Dual use batteries since it's my only battery and does crank 25hp O/B and run all my electronic while drifting/anchored for hours on end.
