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  |

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. Rob ------------- Current 2003 Ski Nautique 206 Limited Previous 2001 Ski Nautique Open Bow 1994 Ski Nautique Open Bow Aqua skiing, ergo sum |

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. ------------- '63 American Skier - '98 Sport Nautique |

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.
