An email from PulseTech made it through my spam filters. Since it was about battery charging, I read it rather than just hitting the delete button. I've heard of pulse charging technology being effective at desulfating, but always figured it was snake oil. The pictures included in the email...

Well, so far it seems this years only casualty is the stbd engine alternator. Can anyone recommend a reputable rebuilder on the south shore of long island, NY. Also is there anything in particular I should be looking for. I dont know yet what make or model it is but the boat is a 1972 and the...
