slight derail, sorry steplift
Yep same thing. Tabbed in a shelf across the entire opening with a cut out in the rear to mount the bilge pump down in the bilge. Batteries are mounted in boxes. Mounted the battery switch to the bulkhead below the cuddy entrance. Battery cables are 1 gauge and are routed up under the helm station to the rigging "rings" that go back towards the engine.
