I got sick of the Marine battery's, you get 1 year warrt with them and they suck!!
Seems like I was going for new battery's every other year??

Now I use car battery's, and have never looked back! I got 6 years from one and 5 from the other and they are warrt for 4 or 5 years so if they do go I get something for them!

Walfart has the best deal, they don't have the best battery's but they have 100% free replacement for like 2 years some 3 I think. I just run dry and replace just before the wartt runs out and always have fresh battery's!
Just turned the boat over yesterday and the battery's have been there since Nov not running or anything and the boat was turning over like new! I don't even take them out the boat anymore.

But I run like said this time I run #1 and next time #2 just to keep them charged up good.

Dave's right.
Ok to switch just as long as you don't turn to off while switching from 1 to 2, or 1 or 2 to both.
