I have a 2003 340 with 8.1's. The boat came with 4 group 27 lead acid batteries. It's time to replace them and I'm thinking of going with the Optima maintenance free batteries.
First question: Would I be better off moving to group 31's, if so what are advantages?
Second question: If I replace all 4 batteries with the Optima's, will my charger work the same? Have heard that it might need reprogrammed for different type or group of batteries.
Third question: I leave the charger on at all times at the dock and have had great battery life. Will leaving the charger on cause any harm to the Optima's?
I have tried to search the topic but for some reason the search won't work.
Thanks,
Jeff
