[C320-list] starting battery

[Orlando.Duran at AveryDennison.com]

It also depends on hull numbers, my batteries are under the port setee, I placed my starting Grp 27 under the starboard setee...

REALLY!?  That's the only 320 I've heard of that didn't have the head
thru-hull between the holding tank and the Aft 4D battery.   Is the factory
position?   If so, perhaps they had a new guy installing thru-hulls that
day... :)   

Do you know if there's some other reason why it was located there?

On my hull no. 624, the through-hull for the head is forward of the 
4Ds.  So I built a small shelf, glassed into the bottom of the hanging 
locker, for a dedicated starting battery.  The wiring run was short, 
behind the liner in the head, and I just rewired the existing battery 
switch...number one is house-bank, the 4Ds, and number two is the 
flooded starting battery in the closet.  By the way, after our passage 
last June, I took out the water heater, which we weren't going to use, 
and now the boat lists to starboard, very slightly, about 2 degrees out 
of plumb.  Trolling last weekend we landed two mahi mahi, or dorado.  
Most sailors here always have several lures in the water, and the 
speedy 320 is turning into a real fish-catcher.  Aloha, Dave
