[Public-List] Battery Location

[crufone at comcast.net]

Jeff, 



On my boat, hull#133 there are 1/4" thick plywood floors in the bottom of the bilge lockers under the sole.  If yours are open to the bilge I wonder if the plywood floors in yours are missing.

under the cabin sole. 

Anyone have problems with this? Obviously, from a weight distribution point 
of view this is a good solution.
