My starting battery was totally dead today as a result of the kids leaving on the aft cabin light and me forgetting to turn the battery switch off 2 weeks ago.
I started with the house battery and took a 30 minute cruise to charge the dead starting battery. No improvement after charging, still under 10volts, I even checked the battery when alternator was charging, 13.5volts. This was a new battery in April of this year. Got it replaced free under warranty.
Is this common to trash a starting battery after only one full discharge.
