Default Charging AGM trolling motor batteries

Can a onboard charger (Minn Kota) be used to charge AGM batteries?

Mine says wet cell and AGM. Read the manual for the specific charger.
Did you check Minn Kota web site. Tech support is staffed by intelligent life forms.

The current Minn Kota chargers work with wet lead acid and AGM batteries. They DO NOT charge gel batteries.

I agree with the above, wet-cell and AGM batteries are good to go on a Minn Kota charger.

Most onboard chargers will work with AGM batteries.
