Title: Where is your battery mounted?
Post by: HaulsBalls on November 23, 2011, 09:11:07 AM

I picked up a clean set of logs last summer and it's time to do the swap, my only problem is now my battery is in the way since some clearances have changed.  I need some ideas on relocating my battery and installing a new mount.  I'm running a group 27 and was going to run it just outside the passenger side stringer near the transom, any thoughts or clean installs would be great.

i just rotated mine when i changed exhaust.  not a great shot.  i just tossed a handful of SS screws thru the bottom of the tray.

That's right about where my current battery is, maybe a few inches closer to the transom. And my logs clear it with ease.
