At some point in every boat it comes down to chasing lures, tools, baitfish or trashfish to the bilge.
In my case the batteries are also located there and I durn sure don't want something to short out cause it rolled back there.

A cover whould have been great except after measuring the mounting locations I would have to order some weird size batteries and I ain't much on custom parts.
So the next best thing and easily installed and removed!

My work across the board lacks a "finish" or "trim" capability but at least it's functional. :-/

Is that starboard or painted wood? Not that it matters - I just can't tell. Good idea Tsub.

That's leftover Starboard.
Always can find something to do with it. ;D
As a matter a fact the piece below the one I made is all I have left over from a full sheet.
