Moving items from starboard too port , ? only have 2 batteries
& 6 gallon hot water tank , that I have access , Waste tank is on
starboard but buried and when full ( always empty ) is 20 gallons
Fuel & fresh water is centered .

Anything I install in that area has too be something I can slide along
side engine , Were gen sat I can install a number of batteries but 130 lbs are
over kill for my needs , Just wanted too explore options
CRAZY - Wanted less weight ,
need all this useless weight too balance boat ,

Al B:

You STILL haven't told us what kind of boat it is, how big and how you use it. Any advice given without knowing that is worthless...

Advice about adding any particular type of battery to a system where nobody knows what exists, what charging is available, what the power budget is, and how things are connected is foolish.
