[C320-list] battery compartment, box

[Dave Hupe]

Exactly the same on our 320.  My survey last year said nothing about it.

We have a 1994, #62, the batteries sit on a shelf with a very low lip; but, otherwise are not contained in case of a failure of the case. They are restrained by a heavy wood bar across the top secured to the settee with nut& bolt which I feel is sufficient to restrict movement per standards.
I'm interested to know if anyone has experience with a boat survey that dealt with battery storage, especially on the older 320s.  And, what kind of battery box might be used on the older 320.

Thanks,
