Why Buy AGM Batteries: Nobody Wants Acid in the Boat
AGM Batteries are a good choice for anyone looking for a new battery to put in their boat. AGM's are spill proof because the acid absorbs into fine fiberglass crystals inside the battery. Having a spill proof battery on rough seas and choppy rivers really boosts the confidence of any boater out on the water.

AGM batteries have a low internal resistance while still maintaining a quick response time with high currents. They function very well in cold weather a good choice for hunters or late season fishermen.
There are many boats that have batteries stored up under the bow to accommodate various electronics on or near the bow of the boat itself. Electric trolling motors and fish finders are popular on the bow, especially with bass and walleye boats. These batteries take a beating when running in bad weather
We've got a lot of fish finders and other electronic gear for your boat right here.
I have personally tried running normal, deep cycle batteries up front with nothing more than a mess to show for it. Having battery acid leak all throughout the bow of your boat is not a good thing. After that, I strictly use AGM's up front in my boat, and have been very happy with their performance.
AGM's do have a few issue with them as well. They are sensitive to overcharging and do not like excessive heat. AGM batteries will cost more than standard batteries, however their performance is well worth it under most conditions.
