has anyone had experiance with:

everstart or duracell marine batteries? group 29

they both have 12 month warranties, and both cost about the same.

just wondering if anyone has had success or failure with either?

I have had great success with Everstart units. If I ever have my choice, i try to shoot for Diehard. However, I was in a situation where my F350 diesel had an alternator meltdown and ruined both of the batteries on board. After diagnosing the problem, I grabbed a great deal on two Everstarts. The truck loved them and when it comes time for me to replace them, I will go again with the Everstarts. It takes some serious CCA to turn that motor on cold mornings. Never an issue.
Sorry, no experience with them for any type of marine use.
