A year old battery
see other post--- is charger not kicking on due to low voltage now? use jump pack or jumper cables to a charged battery to energize the on-board charger- or try a conventional, plain charger to get voltage up to kick boat charger on?

Throw it away, I went through 3 in a year, the Optima Blue Top is an OverPriced, OverMarketed piece of crap.
You have to use a older manual charger to ge it above 10.5 or you can try parrelling a fully charged battery with the low battery and see if the charger will get it going. Keep the two batteries in parallel to make sure it charges correctly.
Skeeter, about how long since the charge before, Sitting at 10.5 for(a couple months or more) very long will damage the battery permanently. Blue top Optima starts with low RC numbers to start with as well. They work ok as long as you don’t have much of an electronics load. Just my experience with them, Bob
Tell me where has a slow movin' once quick draw outlaw got to go
