[QUOTE="ccm, post: 348157, member: 13447"] Going to do something similar to my Arkansas Traveler. One thing I noticed was that your battery was just resting on the floor don't know if your done but get a battery box and secure it. If the battery tips over the best scenario is a small amount of acid leaks out, corrodes your hull, and your having to scrub it out with baking soda to neutralize the acid. Worst case it tips and the posts touch the hull discharging the battery arcing against the hull and blowing a large hole in the boat. I've seen it happen before. I didn't have a good strap on my box and ended up having to scrub the entire hull. It didn't ruin my battery thankfully. Sorry about the rant just giving some friendly advice. [/QUOTE]
