Easy to get to. The only issue is that between batteries, inverter, radome etc, the boat sits a little low in the stern, leading to growth on the gel coat just above the bottom paint. My solution was to move to freshwater!

The boat will be used for live aboard cruising. The current setup has one new start battery as bank 1, and two old batteries in parallel as the house bank 2. The old house batteries need to be replaced in the next couple of weeks, and we would like to maximize the AHR capacity and try to increase the number of batteries in the house bank. The start battery is in the locker under the front half of the quarter berth. The house batteries are on a shelf on the port side of the engine compartment (and are a bitch to get to). There is no room for more batteries on the shelf. So where have you guys installed additional batteries to increase the size of you house bank?
