Battery box for starting battery $30.00

1. New box on starboard side to mirror location of existing battery box on port.  
2. Make new battery box for starting battery

I made a new battery box out of plywood and fiberglass.  I glassed and tabbed it in to the starboard side.  I will add another 2 6 vdc batteries to the other side and one starting battery.   I was unable to use the cover as the Bluesea battery post fuse were to high.  I might make a new cover for both the new box and the existing box that never had a cover so I am not sure if I’ll go to the effort this spring, I’ll see how time goes. Photos show adding supports for new box.  Then I glassed tabbed in the new box and painted.
