If batteries are kept fully charged, is it OK to leave them stored in the
boat (laid up) over the winter? Might get down to the teens once in a
while, but mostly will only dip into low 20s overnight.

My last set of batteries lasted seven years. I take them out after
winterizing, put them in the garage on a shelf, and hit them with a trickle
charger about every other week all winter.

I always take mine out and store them int he basement, except for when
I'm using one in the log splitter or dads tractor.
