[QUOTE="DEMikey, post: 384814, member: 18168"] that box will fit up to a group 27 battery. i don't see where a box is necessary. just that the battery cannot move in any direction more than an inch. we use some very thick plastic at work, the stuff that lines a rock hopper. it is very dense and 1' thick. i have enough to line the transom area, and will use the tee bolts you see in swing sets to anchor the battery to it. will use rivnuts and angle brackets to secure the piece of plastic to the seat back. ill have pics of it when im done. maybe in the future ill get a group 27 or smaller. but being that we fish 6-8hr tournaments, i like having the group 29 or even a 31. i appreciate the ideas, and will probably still have the box made out of aluminum and mount it the same way. i just don't want the boat to look hacked up. i come from the Honda forums (14 year Honda-tech.com user) and i don't want my boat looking like some of the cars i used to work on. thanks again everyone!!!
