Re: What Battery
Optima battery purchased from Tayna batteries in Abergele and now on boat, rang them up, told them what purpose the battery was for, it arrived on the doorstep within 48hrs. Sterling service, although it wasn’t cheap, but from past experience, buy cheap buy twice.

Re: What Battery
Very interesting information Alacrity and thanks for sharing, my Merc. 80 is 1977( ish) so definitely falls in that bracket of engines you were referring to. Will contact Tayna in Abergele and see what they have in the range with Optima leisure batteries .

Happy New Year.
Pretty sure I won’t be alone in posting Happy New Year wishes to one and all, don’t think I’m far wrong in saying 2021 will be a better year with the positive news of the vaccine roll out, so we can all enjoy the forthcoming boating season which was greatly missed last year.
