To add a conclusion to this thread, we’ve had our batteries fitted.
We went for x6 AGM house batteries, and a normal lead acid start battery. Our two bowthruster batteries were fine so we didn’t change those.
IBA were very easy to deal with though it isn’t easy for them to schedule all the jobs during the busy August month, they did order the batteries and fitted them over a few days. It was convenient on their pontoon
The batteries fitted fine (length and breadth) and atm they seem to be working just fine. However, I do have to raise the floor of a cupboard slightly because the battery posts are a bit high and stop the shelf fitting properly. Two of the batteries are in the base of this cupboard. The on line battery measurements were without posts. You live and learn!
Anyway, thank you once again for all the help offered, and the useful contacts.
