Hank, On my M-15, #407, 1988, the battery is a group 24 and is located underneath the V-Berth. Raising the V-berth cushion there is a plywood board covering an access hole to the area below the V-berth. The under berth area is filled with pieces of Styrofoam, except for a battery box that sits just below the opening. The only difficulty in getting the battery in and out is, what to do with the V-berth cushion. Also, how to charge the battery without removing it. For this I am thinking of making a cable the plugs into the cigarette lighter/DC outlet on the electrical switch panel. Idea here is to plug the cable into the outlet with the other end connecting to a charger that is on deck or elsewhere, and trickle charging the battery through the DC outlet.
