I want to go to a 24v I- pilot system in a Bass Tracker Pro Crappie. Ideally, for weight distribution I would like to mount the batteries in the front storage hatch but, I can not find batteries that will fit height wise. I only have 8" .
So...... I was thinking if I bought AGM batteries( Cabelas is where I was looking) I could mount them on their side and I can make them fit then.

Pros / Cons ????
Opinions????
