Advice on correct Batteries to use !!

[P.Starweld]

time to replace my Bow mount Trolling motor Batteries, looking for advice on the best Batteries to run. I have a minn kota Tranova 80 I pilot for steering on a 20' Starweld pro had Excide Batteries to start but only lasted 2 years for occasional use !!! Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated !!

I also purchased a Starweld 20' Pro in March. Real happy with the batteries so far, Interstate 31M-AGM. Almost didn't spend the money to upgrade to sealed batteries but glad I did. Well worth the peace of mind not worrying that they might leak.

The Interstate 27's are also very good batteries. I fish a lot and got 5 years out of the last set. They were still OK, but were getting a bit weak at the end of a long day.
