How long can I expect the batteries to last? It stays in heated garage during winter and I have an on bank charger for the dual battery system.

I dont work for Moomba, so it would be an assumption as to what type of batteries came in your boat, Further more, some boats are delivered to the dealer sans battery and the dealer puts in what they want. So again, leads to speculation.

Are you asking how long in years they may last or how long at the part cove they may last playing the tunes? Happy to help, just need some details.

I don't think the boats ship with a battery - it's part of the dealer prep, so I'd guess each of our boats were delivered with something a little different.

My '13 OBV came with a Group24 something.

It is hard to tell especially when one battery is used such as mine. I carry jumper cables just for that case as I am good for one jumper before the battery is replaced.

My 2008 came with a single interstate marine when purchased new in 08. I haven't replaced it yet! I do remove and keep on a battery tender all winter.

Lots of variables here - type, how they are drained, how long they sit drained, recharging, storage, etc.
Not really an answer.

I had the same with an Interstate on my last boat, 7+.
I've had others 'cheaper' ones crap-out right after 4.

5 years +/- 2 years depending on quality and care
