I have a Humminbird Matrix 97,only used for a month at best.It's like new.I have the box,instructions,all cables.This unit has preloaded map data and comes with the gps receiver and trolling motor transducer.The GPS has never been hooked up.Make me a offer.

Funny you should ask. I purchased one at WalMart last night.
Model 24DP-4
Marine cranking amps 675
cold cranking amps 550
amp hours 105.
Ive never used them but many of my friends do.

I had these in my boat for 8 years before they finally gave out. Use these for the TM only, if you have an Optimax you must have 1000 amps for the compressor, don't go any less.

EverStart Maxx 29 (875 Cranking / 675 Cold / 125 Amp Hours) batteries from WalMart are all I have used in my 1988 Ranger 373 with a 1988 Yamaha Pro V 150. I put the charger on them when I get home from a day on the water and they last 4 to 5 years.
The set that I currently have are from 06/07. I forgot to put the charger after being on the water all day Saturday and they were great for all day Sunday. Got home put the charger on and Monday morning all charger lights were green. I feel that I always get my moneys worth.
