When I was negotiating to purchase "Bacchus" the PO did little / no maint himself and relied on yard to do simple tasks like checking / filling batty water. It turned out frequent filling / overfilling? and charging caused acid "boil over" that not only filled the trays but flowed into the bilge and basically destroyed a sump pump & switch. Ended up being one of many "negotiated adjustments" to an accepted offer w/ contingencies. It can happen
