Default 12 volt batteries

I have a 92 marathon with 3 12 v batteries that when I fully charge the system I jump in to go and it moves very slow. multimetered the batteries and found that 2 of the batteries had dropped below 12v. are there any affordable alternatives to a already expensive 12 volt battery . and what is the best option so many different choices now in batteries. and would like a trolling motor battery work.

No don't waste your money on a Trolling Motor or Marine Deep Cycle battery as they will NOT last very long at all. They are not designed for the instant and long duration high amp draw that golf carts place on the battery. Only replace with Golf Cart or Commercial Deep Cycle batteries...

"so many different choices"? There is only one logical choice, the batteries it was designed for. 6x 6volt batteries (T-105, or better). From what I have seen, the deep cycle Marine batteries only last about 2 years in a golf cart.
