Default 86 V20 CC Sterndrive Dual Batteries in livewell?

Hello,

Is anyone running dual batteries in a CC with the 170? Usually I just carry a spare battery down in the livewell and some jumper cables but was thinking about rigging it up down there with the Add-A-Battery kit. Is this a good idea?

Another alternative would be mounting up under the co-pilot's seat - lots of dead space under there that I don't really intend to fill with anything.

Right now the only accessory electronics I am running are a garmin GPS and a VHF. Those are currently pulling power from the ACC circuit on the fuse panel.

Thanks for any input.

Best,

Perry

Both of my batteries are in the rear starboard floor locker.

If this is a cuddy model, in deck between the fish box and cuddy door is a big ol place for batteries if you make a hatch.
