Battery for 2000 Rhodes22?

I need a recommendation for the type/size of batteries for my Rhodes 22.
It's a 2000 that was refurbished by Stan in 2017.
I managed to kill both batteries by poor (actually no) maintenance so I
learned an expensive lesson.
I have two solar panels that keep the batteries charged and I have minimal
power requirements while sailing since I only use the motor lift, VHF
radio, and Garmin GPS on a regular basis. I use the running lights
infrequently.
I would like to purchase the new batteries today, probably from AutoZone
here on Kent Island in Maryland.

I searched the site documents and this forum for 'Rhodes batteries for
dummies' but didn't find explicit guidance on this.
thanks very much,
Bob Garrant
