    Question Mounting For Second, Small Battery??

    Mounting/wiring 2nd battery (motorcylce size) for 24v trim. What are you guys using for mounting??
    I am mounting to the top of open stringers and don't want to get too crazy here.
    Have about a 10" span between tops of stringers and battery is only about 3 1/2" X 6".
    Looking at either 2 pcs of alum. angle or pc of plywood both acting as a tray.
    Any "unique" ideas that I have'nt thought of??
    Thanx,
    Gary

    You could just mount it to the side of the stringer if you can find a tray of somesort or make one.Here is a picture of mine its a s/s steel tray i made for a lawn/garden battery with a stap to hold it in.I could bend you one up when i get some time but you probably are wanting it now for the fl trip.Dave

    Thumbs up Dave

    PERFECT!!
    Never even thought of munting it down/between stringers??
    Futs almost perfect turned side ways and strapped to a cross brace between the two center stringers.
    Just need one pc of alum to make a tray like yours and I'm done!
    Made/glassed in a mount for the main battery up under the deck so I can lose my lead and help balance the boat.
    Awesome, thanx again Dave!!
