If you are a Sams Club member they sell Duralast marine batteries. I use a Deka starting battery for my boat and if I had a Sams card I would have purchased the Duralast.

I know Sam's Club sells Duracell which East Penn makes.
East Penn also makes Deka.

Hard to beat a Duracell AGM 31 for $179. Also it depends on your motors cca requirements plus any accessories you run.

I have a continental flooded cell in the boat now. Lol, been lucky, it is the original cranking battery that came in the boat when I bought the boat brand new in 2014...

This. We fished a 14hr night tourney and with both livewells and 3 big graphs running it started the motor just like it did that morning as it did that evening.

I have used the Duralast Marine battery from Autozone and had good service from them. I used the one with 1000 cca they were reliable and usually there's an Autozone close by.

My opinion....

If it says "last"'"start", or "super" in its name.....it ain't none of it.

I have had 2 of them, each one lasted 4-5 years. Only reason I don't have one now is when the last one finally died I was in a time crunch and bought an interstate at the marina where i was launching.

You need to learn how to spell words. Duracell and Deka batteries are very good quality. What did you switch to?

Duracell is a Deka. Deka one of if not the best marine battery. Their wetcells are awesome.
