Good question! Don't know. May be able to use my existing starting battery if possible. I intend also in my 5 year plan to move my 2 or maybe 3 batteries forward to the cuddy storage hatch or into a fishing storage cabinet behind my helmseat. (like MJ's cabinets)

Hmm.......... :-/

my battery's are in the rear of the boat?? I did suggest o someone that was having weight issues a while back that they might move the battery's forward, For Acc. only.

Back is the best area as reel says for the reasons he said.

If leaning one side or another, you can try putting one on each side of the rear.

What cabinets?? You must have me confused?? Or is I am confused? Thats it I am for sure!~ ;)

RAP, your a lucky man. I never got to see cream, Jack Bruce, Ginger Baker & eric Clapton. It don't get any better than that. I still remember riding up an down the beach listening to "Disreali Gears" & "Wheels Of Fire" on my 8 track. My Favorite line from a Cream song
"That woman is like a dresser, some man always goin through her drawers"

Thanks for the re-memory on the lyrics ;) ...not too long ago, I caught a Cream Reunion on ETV ...Bruce, Baker and Claton 8) 8) 8) ...Bruce and Baker looked like they'd been ''Rode hard and put up WET'' over the years, but the sound was definately still there ... ;) ... I believe DVDs available thru SCETV...

MJ, My batteries are located in the stern bilge under the motor well. The Yamaha oil reservior is also located there. I think that the battery location on my boat is not a very good location and it is not easy to pull out the batteries with all of the crap jammed in there. Sorry I called your on-board tackle box a cabinet, but maybe I confused your boat with someone else's.

On my boat the battery, kicker motor, and drink cooler (baitwell double as drink cooler) are all on the starboard side. I just have to load up on fish in the port side fish box to level her out ;D

Actually the crazy thing is it seems like it alway leans to the OTHER side despite the extra weight? Its really not a problem. I just make my passengers sit where ever I need them (redneck trim tabs).

This were I was confused? Cause he says I have cabinets, I only have one, and there is no battery's in it?

No matter, if you have to move them up then go for it!! =But I had the same set up as you 2 batterys and Yamaha oil tank and had no problems?
But my bracket is a floation bracket and i amsure that helps some.

Blue, when I run across an unbalanced situation, I just giver er a little tab. ::) The in-floot storage area shouldn't be called a livewell. It's a nice storage area, but I can't see it making a good livewell under any circumstances.
