Location: sneaking out to get on the water ;-)

If they're wired correctly and still doing it more than likely one is shot and drawing your other one down with it. This happend to me last year. My batteries were 5 years old though. All of a sudden I went from fishing all day to a 2-3 hour period. First time I thought maybe they didn't get charged but after the second time I took them out charged them seperately and hooked them to a smaller trolling motor on my bench. One battery was dying after ten mins but the other one was working still. Didn't help the one was working I still went and bought 2 new ones and put them in. No point in doing one and killing them both again. Good luck!
