Default Gel Cell Batteries and Chargers

I have a 70# thrust minn kota riptide on my 19ft bay boat. I just put new gell cell batteries in and from a full charge with my on board charger they were almost completely dead after about 3 or 3 and a half hours. Are some chargers not compatible with gell batteries? or is it just that maybe my charger is old and needs replacing (its about 12 years old)? or does it sound more like maybe a short in the wiring is possible causing the batteries to drain?
