I'm sure you're aware that a pair of Trojan T105 6-volt golf cart batteries, connected in series for 12-V, are the hot set up for deep-cycle marine house loads. Usually find them for about $100 each at Sam's Club. You end up with about 250 amp hours IIRC.

Not fun to run out of electric when away from shore.

G'luck,
