[QUOTE="LaqueRatt, post: 509706, member: 32586"] For the heck of it, just checked my 27 series trolling battery: 12.7V. Older battery that's sat on the garage floor for 3 mos in temps between 32-60F. I'm topping off the charge, but pretty sure it could have sat another 2 or 3 mos without hurting it any. Conclusion: 6 mos in the cold should not hurt any battery. Just be sure to disconnect the cables to eliminate the possibility of parasitic draw. Probably more common in cars than boats. [/QUOTE]
