Hi. We just bought a new Bayliner 175 and put her in the water for the
first time the other day. The battery was dead (and bad, it turns
out), although I had started the boat the night before our trip. No
matter. We pulled the boat out and had Advance Auto Parts install a
new battery. Worked fine and we had a good day, except I noticed later
that the battery is a marine *deep cycle* rather than a standard
marine battery. I've heard deep cycles aren't really intended for
engine starting; what do you all think? Should I get a marine starting
battery or just live with what I have. Thanks.
