Battery 168 AMP
I have this battery that is 2 years old. I was wondering if it is safe to put on a kayak?

If its holding the voltage,go for it.As far as it being safe or not I wouldnt worry, your bait may die but there wont be a Cherobyl-like catastrophe...

I use the same exact batteries.
As far as being two years old, charge it up and try it at home. If it has not been charged in two years......possibly crap |

Make sure that it is well secured, cause at 11 lbs it could do some damage in surf launching/landing. Not to mention be damaged if it is moving around.

you got 2 good kayak batteries in there, as long as they are in good condition. In APC UPses, they last 3 to 5 years. I believe they're glued together - separate them, no need to cary both of them.
