Not enough room for 4 6V. Wish I did though.
I just ordered 3 new Trojan 31-AGM 12V 100AH batteries. I got a very good price on them and they are available locally so no shipping charges.They come with a pretty good warranty too.
Thanks for everyone's input

Have had 8D AGMs last for 10 years in my trawler, but they do have a different charge rate (not the same bulk rate as a wet cell) and they can fail or be difficult to recharge if totally discharged. I have had to put mine on a 2amp recovery for a week before I could bump them up to a higher charge rate. I have one agm left out of the original 3 and I am gradually replacing them with marine sealed deep cycle as they fail. 8Ds are just too big and heavy for me to handle. Talk to your battery provider about charge rate. It may be different in your case vs mine.
