Marine battery Fullriver FT230 Full Throttle Series 20Ah 230A 12V
The Fullriver FT230 marine battery offers 12 V, 20 Ah and 230 A of cold cranking current (EN) from the Full Throttle Series range with AGM technology, designed for motor and sailing boats, both for engine starting and onboard services. Its 181 × 77 × 167 mm make it the exact replacement for the 20 Ah battery fitted as standard to many boats.
In short: the Fullriver FT230 (20 Ah, 230 A, 181 × 77 × 167 mm). Verified equivalent alternatives: Fullriver FT230L and Fullriver FT230D.
- Resistant to humidity and salt air.
- Sealed: no spills or gases in the locker.
- Ready for starting outboard and inboard engines.
- AGM: faster recharging and better cycle resistance than a conventional battery.
What the Fullriver FT230 is for
With 20 Ah, the Fullriver FT230 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 7 kg and M6 terminals.
The Fullriver FT230: Full Throttle Series range and AGM technology
The FT230 is part of the Fullriver Full Throttle Series range. Choosing the right reference within the series comes down to capacity, dimensions and terminals: technology and quality are common to the whole family.
In an AGM battery the electrolyte is absorbed in glass-fibre separators: there is no free liquid, it cannot spill and it can be mounted at an angle. That construction lowers internal resistance, speeds up recharging and multiplies cycle life compared with a conventional battery.
Size, terminals and hold-down of the Fullriver FT230
It has external dimensions of 181 × 77 × 167 mm and weighs 7 kg. It uses M6 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 Fullriver does differently
Fullriver specialises in deep-cycle AGM batteries for mobility, marine, solar and traction. Its DC and HC series are known for their tolerance to deep discharge and long cycle life. We guarantee that every Fullriver arrives new, charged and with the manufacturer's full warranty.
Care and maintenance
Protect the terminals with dielectric grease and check the fixing: vibration and swell loosen connections. Charge with a charger that has an AGM mode: it limits the voltage and protects the glass-fibre separators.
Official warranty
The Fullriver FT230 comes with the manufacturer's official warranty against manufacturing defects. Deep discharge from winter lay-up without charging is not covered.
Delivery times 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. You have 14 days to return an unused battery; in mainland Spain and Portugal collection is free. We email you the tracking number as soon as the parcel ships.

Frequently asked questions
Is the FT230 model AGM? What does this technology offer?
Yes. The FT230 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 FT230 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.
How long does the Fullriver FT230 battery last?
Expected lifespan of the Fullriver FT230 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 size is this battery?
Dimensions (length × width × height) are 181×77×167 mm — also written as 181x77x167 mm — 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 FT230 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 FT230 typically fits a wide range of European vehicles thanks to its standard DIN case format.
What are the equivalents of the FT230 model?
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.
