Irn,
Replace the Magnetek before you do much else.
It was state of the art 30 years ago, but it's time has passed.
Keep it if you need a good 12V bench power supply, but it has no other value. It will take for ever to charge and then boil the batteries dry when it is done.
Get a new three or four stage smart charger, I might recommend Progressive Dynamics or Iota and there may be others by now.
I did a lot of boat work before the depression and made a lot of happy owners when I dropped the old Magneteks overboard.
