I want to add a second two battery bank to GittinAir my second E29 that will be used on the coast. I have looked at ABYC regs and know less than I did when I started reading.
It appears if I place the batteries in a box that is water tight I can place them within two feet of my fuel tank, Is this acceptable and any advice would be appreciated. Does a battery box meet requirements of a bulkhead?
My girlfriend's bass boat has a fuel tank and three batteries within inches of each other with no divider and it is an enclosed compartment. Don't want to repeat their mistake if it is wrong.
