Battery placement

[trapper]

Would one of you who owns a 208 or a 228 with two batteries together (I have group 27) in the stern hatch, post a pic of them in place. Thanks

Group 27's in port box. 228

Thanks KY, wanted to see the positioning and that helps. I think the stern hatches are approx. the same size 208/228. Are those Group 27?

 

[Ky Grady]

Yup,,,,, 27's.

Sunny out. 208 with group 27's, starboard corner

Thanks Paul and KY, Will start the battery shuffle on bringing the boat home next month. Believe I will go to Bennet electric tabs rather than move trim pump etc. to make a fit.

You're welcome.

I installed the Bennett electrics on my 208 and they are excellent. The install was painless as Bennetts instructions and templates are very clear and easy to understand. Highly recommend.

 

[Ky Grady]

No problem. I've actually got 4 batteries in the back. 2 for trolling motor and 2 for main motor and house on a switch. 2 in each box.

Thanks Paul for the tab confirmation, KY you certainly have any issues with a low battery...... covered.
