Tired Batteries - Optima Blue Top?

[Offshoreman]

How are the Optima blue top batteries? I'll soon be replacing a pair of group 27 Interstates....

Spend a little more (maybe not in some cases since they can be shipped right to your door) and see if these will fit your needs?

Hope this helps?

Those look awesome. A little spendy....

They last for many years (have two on the present Skiff) and one of those is even mounted sideways for the trolling motor in the forward hatch due to space. A true dry cell battery by design, and you might be surprised how much you can get them for by shopping online for them. Sites like Battery Mart dot com and others, due to volume and since they are truly sealed units thus can be shipped to your home is an advantage over other types.

I ended up going with Interstate group 31 AGM's.
