Bubbling Battery

Checked water levels the other day, and I admit I don't do this as often as I should. The battery nearest the Perko switch was fine the the second battery was REALLY low on water. I put water in it and came back in about 1 1/2 hours and it was really hot and bubbling, the other battery appeared normal. These batteries are only 1 1/2 years old. I have a Perko battery shut off switch(previous owner install) and the second battery is the problem one.

If the charger was acting up it would affect both batteries would it not?? The batteries are Interstate HD24DP installed by the dealer when I purchased the FW. Because we store the FW next to our garage I have it plugged into shore power probably more than I should, so I probably have over ccarged them.I also posted on that other site as I'm looking for as much info as I can get.

We are leaving for Yellowstone on Tuesday, I hope, we should have already been gone but stuff keeps coming up.

Thanks
Ray
