Sounds like you are charging fine. You did not say what battery voltage is after it sets about 24 hours. Should be about 12.5 volts.
Remember
12.8 = full charged
12.6 = 75%
12.3 = 50%
12. =25%

Charge it up over night and see if any change My SG runs around 13.75 - 14.00 and I run a battery tender (Deltran) if she sits for more than 2 days.
