Adding extra battery
« on: December 15, 2016, 08:42:59 AM »
Wanna add an extra battery under the rear stern box of my 200xf. Currently running one battery under left box. Figure an extra battery is always a good idea plus may help counter balance my listing issue a bit.

So does anybody have good ideas for creating a battery tray/platform?

That depends on what stern configuration your 200XF has. My 81 model had two boxes on either side of the fold down splash well seat/platform. I placed a battery inside of each one. The PO had cut holes in the splash well and had them in the bilge. It was a terrible location and the hatches he used leaked really bad.  Pics of your stern would help.
