Thanks, Eric. I do wish we had the same nominal sizes for our batteries in Europe---maybe we do, but I have not heard of people using them. I wish also that we had fair winds!!Not here--not yet.And next week the CCA, OCC, Clyde Cruising clubs et al are all assembling in a nearby loch to try to set a new record for a sunflower, 200 boats. As I write I am listening to the Stornoway coastguard telling me that the severe gale 9 is still on its way.....
Ciao, ciao, Ian

Ian,

Here in the USA they are called group 31 batteries. They are an exact
replacement for the original ones.

Even though they are maintenance free batteries they do have a lid that can
be removed. The lid might be under a label. You can then add distilled water
and check each cell with a hydrometer.

Fair Winds

hi y'all, We have some fading batteries on Pen Azen of indeterminate origin
which we picked up in the Dominican Republic. I want to replace them with
the sort that Amel originally used. I believe they were ACDelco maintenance
free, 110ah. Does anyone have the specification for them? Thanks, Ian and
Judy, Pen Azen, SM302, Plockton
