David,
If the battery is taking this long to accept a charge, it is no longer
functioning correctly. A battery at 11.3 volts is still dead and useless
for an boat purposes. Accept the fact that it needs replacing and take it
back for a warranty claim. There is something, perhaps a failed cell or
excessive resistance to keep the amps from flowing in. You don't want to
rely on that battery for anything.

As usual, thank you all for your thoughts. The battery is up to 11.3 volts
after 1.5 days on the smart charger. I will definitely have it load tested
when it is done charging. As to warranty replacement- the discharge was my
fault. Would they still replace it under warranty under those
circumstances? When I call Mid-state should I already have done the load
testing? Do I need it at steady state on the recharge before I load test
it?
