Arrow I Need a Battery Suggestion Please

I'm looking for a Hefty Battery that can handle Cranking, 2 Lowrance Units, NMEA 2000 Network, Live Well, and the Dash, with Power at the end of the day to start the Motor and get me home.

Any Suggestions?

Group 31 with the most reserve capacity that you can find (usually the heaviest battery for it's size). Deka, East Penn, and AC Delco are all very good, but there are plenty of others.

Exclamation

I sell Cat Battery's Group 31 1000 cca at around 110.00 bucks but bought
an Interstate type 24m cranking batt from The Tullahoma Tracker store yesterday for $60.00.

I figured the cat batt would work but wanted the universal type 24m that can handle deep discharges better than a Group 31.

I kept my old cranking batt for crappie lights.

If it helps you any, I purchased a super start marine battery from O'Reilly auto parts. I read that they are East Penn batteries that are private labeled by O'Reillys. I have had mine for over a year now and I am very happy with it.

It seems the Sears Platinum PM-1 keeps coming up over and over. For $300+ it better do the trick...
