    Make sure they are fully charged prior putting boat away, foremost. Plug up on-board shore charger if boat has one.

    Plug in the battery charger on the boat.

    Since my boat is in cold storage with no power I pull them and leave them on the battery tender in my garage at home. Sucks I had to buy a charger when the boat has one built in that has never been plugged in!

    X2 Its not an option here in Alberta to leave batteries outside without constant use.

    Take 10 minutes to remove it from the boat. Then mount to the bench or wall where the batteries will live for the off season and use it!
