Hi guys, sorry if this was asked before but searched the forum and couldn't find anything, or at least nothing came back when I tried the quick search option, but how does everybody store their marine batteries in the off season, I'm only curious as I just got two new ones this year and want to make them last. Do you keep them on charge 24/7, charge them once a month, disconnect the negative so there's no phantom drain? Like I said, they're new and want them to last. Thanks in advance guys.

I take mine out of the boat and store in the basement and charge once a month.
