Good info guys. Thanks.
I've been charging mine with a 2/4/6 amp charger set manually on 6 for larger batteries. It tells me when it's "done," and 13.13V is the highest I've seen yet. Right now I'm topping off with a 2A trickle charge and hoping it'll read higher when it quits. Of course I want to start with the highest possible voltage when I go out.
Good reminder about the terminals touching my aluminum boat Knopf. I've been looking for some big threaded plastic caps just for that reason because it's not mounted at all in the boat.
I'll try not to run it down below 11.5V. I can monitor that with a multimeter, but I hope performace will also degrade approaching the same level (as a warning) so I don't draw current past a sensible lower limit.
