Got a whopping 10 years on two skis with an Odessey battery. It was not so much the battery but used a Perko switch which required a key to give it juice. Built-in security those keys provide. Never used a tender. Just sat on a drive on lift under a covered dock.
Nice man yeah somebody told me you can just put a kill switch so the battery does not drain at all but instead I just run it on a tinder when it sitting
It’s just marine grade grease from advance auto parts, it keep the Bearing lubed and keeps water out, I only use my ski about twice a month, so I Grease that Output shaft bearing once a year
Awesome, great info man, thanks a lot. Im about to pick up two of these ski's and its good to get an idea of its maintenance before hand.
No problem if you have any questions let me know, This ski has been the most reliable ski I have owned!
