Capt. Chuck I have 2 batteries that sit within about 3 in. of the rear of the main tank,they sit about 18 in. apart or equidistant from the center line.This is slightly forward of the front of the old engine compartment I believe. There is no live well. We added a 20 gal. rear tank made of Alum. that sits about 5 in. from the transom under the rearward ssection of the engine compartment.I have never put fuel in it because of my concern for the weight at the rear .That was my brother's idea.We cut out the top of the transom and added a stg/fishbox compartment made out of King Starboard.This rarely has anything in it other thn an Extra gal. of oil. We also added a custom fitted tank in front of the cabin where there used to be a floor stg. area .About 38 gals. that I always keep full , I try to run off the main tank to burn off the most rearward weight. Sitting at rest the boat is low in the rear . I will try to get some pic's up so you can see . It does sit low in the rear even with no one on board .I have an old picture from the floppy disk camera days that I'll post. Thank's for the interest.
