[QUOTE="richg99, post: 238955, member: 4376"] I've put trolling motor batteries in the bow in a number of boats with no issues. I have one right now on my 16 ft Carolina Skiff up in Wisconsin. That flat bottom boat slams into the waves. Be CERTAIN to use a proper battery case, though, just in case. The case will contain any acid. Some batteries are 99% sealed, so little or no acid could even escape. As suggested above, you could cushion the bottom with a slab of thick foam or rubber. regards, R [/QUOTE]
