Title: Battery Placement
Post by: David L. Darnell on March 02, 2011, 09:50:56 PM
I've been wanting to put both batteries and both fuel tanks forward for sometime now, just had to wait until I had a few extra ponies kicking on the transom. ;)

Glenn, you will enjoy this next time you drive the boat  :o

Looks good David. I had to put mine up front too. I think it hurts the life of them from the constant banging and vibration that the front of the boat gets but it's worth it.

He has been a bit lippy lately.  Its good to see ol'e thumper getting his Thumperness back. 

Maybe this year he wont have a weak tippet; and maybe, just maybe, he might land one of those zebra ladies.
