[C320-list] Batteries Off or All

[John Van Vessem]

John,
   
  I realize this is probably an old message but I have been out of touch for two weeks.  Anyway I alternate my battery between 1 and 2 every week.  If I'm not going to be at the  boat for a couple of weeks I will switch to ALL.  My batteries have lasted 6 years.

I don't intend to change my habit of leaving them to set to ALL unless I am doing something dangerous. My original batteries lasted a long time but I was interested what the other 320 owners do.
