Looking for a good deep cycle battery charger
I have a 10' John boat with electric motor, maybe once a year I will take it out. Any recommendations on a good reasonable priced charger. Thanks Mike

$12 trickle charger from walmark.
Are you asking something different? What do you mean "take it out once a year" exactly? Will you need to charge the battery back multiple times on this one outing or will the charge be enough for the little outing?
If you want to recharge it fast between boat trips on this once per year outing then that is way different than keeping the battery charged all year for that one trip.
A small gas motor is better in this situation as a motor can sit years and be ready to go. Battery will die a slow death over time and there is really no way to keep a battery alive for too many years. A golf cart batty can last 5-7 years, some keep them longer, but .....
Kind of a crazy question
