Yes, AC Delco makes a deep cycle battery and no NAPA does not sell them. IMHO they are very good batteries.

Go to the AC Delco Website for information on the batteries and they have a retailer locator to tell you where you can buy them. Or any GM Dealer should be able to order you battery. KOI Autoparts sells them if you are close to one of their locations.

Go to Wally World (Wal-Mart) and buy a deep cycle Battery, they have a 2 year warranty on them and they do last if you keep them charged up when not out on the water....

It really depends on what you are expepting to get from the battery, how big you need, and your fishing habits. I use AC Delco and have for years. for 2 reasons, first they are maintenance free, which means you do not have to watch them for water or the acid leaking out of the caps, and they last. My son was give my old boat last year and the batteries were 5 years old then and are still going strong. I replaced the "neverstarts" in my new boat shortly after getting it with AC Delcos. No worries. Sometimes cheaper is not always better. Also having an on board charger that you can plug in and forget until you go fishing is also the best way to go...Good luck.:-)

I want a decent battery not too expensive. I usually fish 3 or 4 times a month( not enough) and I do have a on-board charger xps bass pro brand. It's a 2 bank charger that transfers the amps needed to which ever battery. I like it alot and it a good charger. Thanks for all of your posts.

Everstart and AC-Delco are made by the same company, Johnson Controls. Buy the ones you can get exchanged under warranty at 10:00 on a Sunday night. No GM dealer will be open, but Walmart will.
