I have never had a problem just disconnecting the batteries on my
boat
(fully charged) and leaving them in place during the winter
lay-up.
I have bought 4 batteries in 4 years now.

The battery will not be strong enough to start the PWC (even when
the
battery charge ways the battery is full).
What did you previously do with the battery over the winter lay-up?
Batteries will self discharge over the winter, especially in colder
areas. A discharged battery will have definitely have a shortened
life.

When I had a trailered boat, I was told to bring the battery home to
keep it in the basement and keep a trickle charger on it. Many
people who don't want to bring the battery home, will use a solar
panel trickle charger to keep the battery fully charged.
As I said before, I never had a problem with this technique.
Besides, as you know, you are the last person I would take any sort
of advice from.
Wow. "Reggie" claims to have had a "trailered boat." Right.
He gets confused at times. He once said he had a bubble boat and
recently claimed to own a houseboat. When you lie it is easy to get
caught up in them.
Dennis, Please show me a post where I said I owned a houseboat?

Which of your 2+ dozen handles should I search Jim Gallow?

Dennis,
You said I just recently said this, so it really should be easy for you to
find.

Sorry Jim Gallow, I have better things to do.

By the way.......my real name is Jim. Why are you ashamed to post under
your real name Jim G?- Hide quoted text -

Experts agree that it's foolish to use your real name in newsgroups,
