I have a 72 irwin 28. the boat came with 2 12v deepcycle bateries and they were in the engine compartment in a rickity home job battery box. im in the midst of upgrades and am just wondering where the best location to put my new bank.
the banks will consist of ;
one 12v starter
2-4 6v golf cart batteries.
the starter batery has its own fiberglass holding box in the engine bay which i could move but would like to keep it there.
adding the 2-4 golf cart bateries (most likely 4 because of the wife power hungry needs) will add quite a bit of weight to this cruser and Im not sure where i should put it for balance. i can eigther put it in an aft berth that im using for storage in its own enclosure or i can put it in the bow under the berth where i have a big empty space where it would be centered in the boat vice all being on one side because i dont want to split them up.
