Check and add water, and be sure to fully charge after adding water. Disconnect from the circuts and leave them in the boat.

A lead acid battery does NOT go dead in the cold. They go DORMANT!! Cold storage slows down the acid lead interaction and ultimately extends life. A battery will discharge at 1% to 2% per day at 80 deg. farienhite with no load.

Been doing this for 25 years!!
