Thanks

I had a group 31 house battery in the back, the front battery was a 27 for the engine only....that big house battery seemed to last forever.

My boat had a bit of a port list when I got it. Both batteries were on the port side, and there was plenty of room on the starboard side, so I bought a battery tray from Formula, extended a Gil battery tray and made new cables. This double-bank serves as both house power and starboard cranking. It would be VERY hard to do with the engines in place...
