On the float charger it stays at 13.2.
If I let it sit with out the charger on after a few days the battery reads 11.3
I also carry a booster pack.


Sounds like you have a voltage leak somewhere. You need to spend some time with an ammeter to track it down before it wrecks the battery and leaves you stranded. If a battery gets below about 12.0, it's being damaged.
