    I put two batteries in a box where the ice chest goes. Made a hinged door to step on and never had any trouble

    Slabber,just got mine done last nite. Next time you're looking fer something to do, put a 1" piece of Styrofoam on the bottom and 1 or 2" piece around the batteries. It snuggied mine up real tight in the space and I shouldn't have the corrosion issues that way.

    Yea, I just spill my beer anyway when I get in a "hole' lot of hurry. I fish to keep from getting IN a hurry....not the other way around. lol But you're right. Getting on plane will be a little tougher. We'll see. I can always go back ifn I don't care for it.

    I had so much weight in the back that the boat would plane out then start hopping.I had a 40 on it at the time with no trim.Went to a 50 Tohatsu with trim and the batteries up front and got on plane fine and trimmed it to where it was a smooth ride.Haven't had any probs with the batteries and have used them for 2 yrs. that way!I think I'm gonna put them in battery boxes with a lid the next time I get a chance.
