Location: Not where I want to be!		I disconnect one lead on each battery and leave them in the boat. The disconnect is mainly in case a mouse chews on wires and prevents a possible fire.

Main thing is to top off the water before you put it away, and be sure to fully charge them. That mixes up the acid and water and will prevent freezing. Lead acid batteries go dormant in cold weather, they don't die. Been doing this for 20 years, no problems.
