I just positioned battery boxes in the center hatch aft of the cabin bulkhead. That is prime real estate, but I didn't want them aft and just didn't feel comfortable putting them inside the cabin bulkhead. The battery selector switch is under the steering wheel.
The only issue that I see is losing the storage space, but it is just something I will work around. I built one each seat box port and starboard and both of them have storage. I also gained a lot of storage space when the transom was enclosed. I am more concerned without having a built in insulated fishbox, but I got a big ol 250 quart YETI cooler that fits nicely across aft end of the cockpit if necessary.
