Batteries location-up front

[montauk555]

Just wondering if anybody move there battery location to the front where the porta potti is.I plan on taking the porta potti out, and moving the batteries to the front, and maybe adding 1 or 2 more batteries. It seems like the front of the 2320 sc could use the weight in the front anyway.Rigging the wires out of sight seems like the only problem. What do ya's think,bad idea?

I put my (2) 31 series batteries up in front in my 2320. Replaces all cables, breakers and battery switch and put them inside also.
Got tired or replacing the battery switch and breakers every year because they were constantly exposed to the salt water in the port side of the transom where the factory installed them.
I needed the weight moved from the port stern to the stb front and moving the weight of the heavy batteries from the stern to the bow took care of that.
