battery problem ?

Hi,
My 88 9KT has begun having problems, specifically on warmer days
when the cooling fan runs after it is parked and shut off.
Twice now, I have been doing errands, short trips with multiple
stops, and when I get back out and try to start it, the battery
is too low and it has to be started with jumper cables (so far I
have been lucky and there was a good samaritan parked near me !).
When cranking after sitting all night, it is usually dropping to
10.3 volts, but sometimes as low as 9.9 - when I measure the
voltage before starting it, it shows 11.9 - 12.5 volts on
different days.
When running, the EDU shows around 13.6 - 14 volts, usually;
so I think it is charging OK.
Is this a clear enough cut case to warrant just replacing the
battery ?
Thanks,
mark
