I do have one suggestion for the battery installation, though......to be taken as constructive, I hope. Let's flip the boat upside down and watch the battery box cover. I don't see any locks on the deck that will hold it in place against 500 pounds of batteries coming loose. I can't see any battery hold downs, straps or otherwise in the picture, but maybe you can enlighten me. Larry, The wood that you see on either side of the batteries is wedge shaped and is screwed into the fiberglass. The photo is rather old and there are now longer pieces which run the full length of the batteries and have 4 screws in them (I think) per side. The screws would have to cut their way through the fiberglass to let the battery fall. I feel rather secure with this arrangement. -- Geoff www.GeoffSchultz.org |
