Hi guys,
I am shopping for a new Group 65 battery for my 97SNOB.  Attached are the 3 options I see at my local Auto Zone.  Which one should I get?  Or should I get something totally different?  

TIA

Seems like it only loaded up one pic.  So here are the others.

Scott:  I went to Costco and got a good deal on an AGM battery a year or 2 ago.  Fitment was good.  Love the AGM.

I've used Everstart Maxx batteries from Walmart since they were recommended here by a few members.  They are much less expensive and I've had good luck with them in multiple boats.

I shop at Autozone and used to buy Duralast batteries but I think they are overpriced for what they are.

Question, do you need a special charger or battery tender to work with a AGM type of battery?
Thanks for your time
Regards
Roy

My Noco battery “tender” has an AGM mode.  However…your alternator doesn’t know if the battery is lead-acid or AGM,  Before I got the Noco, I used a Battery Tender brand charger and had no bad ju-ju that I could detect.

I have purchased my batteries for several years now at Sam's.   They seem as good as any.
