[C320-list] PLEASE SUGGEST BATTERY REPLACEMENT

[LOCALJG at aol.com]

Last year I replaced my 2 4Ds with 4 golf cart batteries.  I also  
installed one of those squeeze ball battery re-fill systems.  I now  have 500 amp 
hours of house battery power and it takes me 5 minutes to top  the batteries 
off when needed.  The golf carts fit in the same space  as the 4Ds and in a 
year's time, are as clean as the day I installed them.   No leakage or white 
powder at the terminals.  The golf carts are  great!  The worst thing about 
making the change to the golf cart batteries  is getting the old 4Ds out of 
your boat.  Those suckers weigh about 130  pounds.  The golf carts weigh 
about as much as a car battery so they  are easy to install.  You will need an 
electrician to figure out the wiring  as it will be different from what you 
presently have but someone who  knows about those things will be able to get 
er done.
