Not sure if this is the right sub-forum....
Cleaning out the boat tonight, first chance in 2 weeks, after returning from a Canada fishing trip. Checked my battery gauge for the two batteries. Main (deep cycle), came up dead. Never had that happen. Looked down at the key switch for the motor, it was ON. Ooooooops! :facepalm:. So, got the charger on. What do you think the chances are that I'll recover the battery? Battery is about 2 years old, always kept up to full when possible. I'm sure it will come up, but not sure how long the charge will be good for. I like a battery that will last between chargings! I don't mind the cost, but replacing the battery means laying on my side and manipulating it out out of its cavernous location, not good on my old back (well into my senior years).
