I was working in the engine compartment yesterday and took a look at the batteries. I have only had this boat for one season so I have no idea how long these batteries have been on the boat. I am going to load test but I figured "Lets see what is on here now". Currently installed are West Marine AGM 8A31DT. I looked them up and they are Dual Purpose. Seems like a waste, shouldn't they just be cranking batteries since everything else runs off the house? What are you running for batteries?

Thanks for any replies.
