I hear ya....but a lot of AGM batteries are installed in boats these days because of their extreme low self discharge rate, their ability to take abuse, and they are spill proof. They also charge much quicker than a lead acid battery. However they are sensitive to overcharging and why you need to be careful on how you charge them if and when needed.

All my boats now have AGM batteries in them...
