Marine battery Fullriver DCG56-12 DCG 56Ah 12V
The Fullriver DCG56-12 with AGM technology is a marine battery with 56 Ah for motor and sailing boats, both for engine starting and onboard services. It replaces the original battery without adaptation in boats with a 278 × 175 × 190 mm format: same 56 Ah capacity.
- Powers onboard services: lights, sounder, GPS, fridge.
- Tolerates the daily cycling of a boat in season.
- AGM technology: absorbed electrolyte, no spills, can be mounted at an angle.
- Reinforced case against vibration and swell.
Will it fit your current battery tray?
In terms of format, the Fullriver DCG56-12 measures 278 × 175 × 190 mm (length × width × height) and weighs 21.10 kg. It uses AP terminals, the system that anchors and connects it in the vehicle. Before replacing it, measure your current battery tray: if all three dimensions and the terminal positions match, the swap is direct and needs no adapters.
What the Fullriver DCG56-12 is for
With 56 Ah, the Fullriver DCG56-12 covers motor and sailing boats, both for engine starting and onboard services. At the end of the season, charge it fully before winter storage. Check that it matches your current battery in dimensions, terminals and hold-down: this reference has a weight of 21.10 kg and AP terminals.
The Fullriver DCG56-12: DCG range and AGM technology
The DCG is the Fullriver range the DCG56-12 belongs to: it shares the same construction and quality criteria with the rest of the series, and varies in capacity and format to suit each vehicle.
AGM means the acid is held in a glass mat instead of floating free. That is why the battery can be installed in the cabin without gases, survives more cycles and recovers its charge quickly.
What Fullriver does differently
With its own plants and a catalogue focused on high-performance AGM, Fullriver is a familiar brand in power wheelchairs, boats and photovoltaic systems that need thousands of cycles. All the Fullriver batteries in our catalogue are genuine product, recently manufactured and covered by the manufacturer's warranty.
Official warranty
The Fullriver DCG56-12 comes with the manufacturer's official warranty against manufacturing defects. Deep discharge from winter lay-up without charging is not covered.
Care and maintenance
At the end of the season, charge the battery fully and, if possible, keep it on a charger over the winter lay-up. As a service battery, avoid routine discharges below 50% to extend its cycle life.
Shipping, delivery and returns
Orders placed before 6:00 pm with the battery in stock ship the same day. Delivery in mainland Spain and Portugal takes 24-48 working hours; for the Balearic Islands and the rest of the European Union allow 3 to 5 working days.

Frequently asked questions
Is the DCG56-12 model AGM? What does this technology offer?
Yes. The DCG56-12 from Fullriver uses AGM (Absorbent Glass Mat) technology: a sealed lead-acid battery where the electrolyte is absorbed in a glass-fibre mat. It withstands more charge/discharge cycles than a conventional one, handles heat better and is the required technology for boats with advanced Start-Stop and regenerative braking. Expected lifespan: 5-8 years under normal conditions.
How is the Fullriver DCG56-12 battery installed in the vehicle?
In most boats it fits in 15-30 minutes with a 10 mm wrench; if the battery is under the seat or in the boot the time can double. See the step-by-step guide on our blog. Quick summary: 1) switch off the engine and remove the key; 2) locate the original battery (engine bay, boot or under seat); 3) disconnect the negative (−) terminal first, then the positive (+); 4) loosen the hold-down clamp and remove the old battery; 5) fit the new one in the same orientation — match the polarity shown on the product sheet; 6) connect the positive (+) first, then the negative (−). On boats with Start-Stop or BMS, register the battery via OBD so the alternator applies the correct charging profile.
What is the service life of the DCG56-12 model?
Expected lifespan of the Fullriver DCG56-12 is 5 to 8 years in mild-climate boat use with Start-Stop. In cold regions it drops slightly due to cold-start stress; in very hot regions it also drops because of electrolyte evaporation. To extend its life: avoid deep discharges (headlights on with engine off), have the alternator checked yearly, and keep the battery clean and properly secured.
What are the dimensions of the Fullriver DCG56-12 battery?
Dimensions (length × width × height) are 278×175×190 mm — also written as 278x175x190 mm and correspond to the European L3 case size — following the European DIN standard. Always measure the space in your boat before buying: even one extra millimetre can prevent the hold-down clamp from closing. The height shown includes the terminals.
Is the DCG56-12 valid for my vehicle?
Three options to confirm: 1) enter your number plate in the finder (DGT/DVLA/KBA auto-detect your model and engine); 2) check the "Compatible vehicles" tab on this page, where we list every vehicle verified by our technical team; 3) if you cannot find your model, message us on WhatsApp with brand, model, engine and year — we reply during business hours (Mon–Fri 10:00–13:30 and 16:40–18:00 (Spanish time, CET)). The DCG56-12 typically fits a wide range of European vehicles thanks to its standard DIN case format.
Which batteries are equivalent to the Fullriver DCG56-12?
Directly interchangeable batteries (same dimensions, same polarity, same Ah and CCA) are the OEM equivalents from leading brands: Bosch, Tudor, Exide and, depending on the model, Banner or Yuasa. Exact equivalence depends on technology — an EFB cannot be replaced with a conventional battery in Start-Stop boats. See the "Equivalents" section to view recommended options at the same performance level.
