Pete, Since I’m not on the criteria list of having mounted a battery for
the windless in the bow/v-berth area on our 1982 37’ I thought I’d weigh in
anyway. Apologies in advance but I have to agree with Josh. I mounted a Lewmar
windlass on a shelf in the anchor locker. I thought quite a bit about doing
what you are thinking about. And discarded the idea pretty quickly. I didn’t
want to add any more weight to dragging down the fine entry of our boats.
Anchor chain was enough. I didn’t want to add another battery to the existing
system. I’ve already done enough fabrication on the boat so wanted to avoid
that too. I didn’t want to think about charging the battery that far forward
either. I settled on just running large cable from the house bank in the port
locker to the windless along the port hull to the anchor locker with waterproof
glands through the bulkhead. The breaker switch is located to port (next to
existing battery switch location) at the base of the companionway steps. The
solenoid for the control switches are mounted up under deck, to port in the
anchor locker. Just my $0.02. Pictures of installation available upon
request. Best regards,Dave Godwin1982 C&C 37 - Ronin1998 Mast & Mallet Thomas
Point 34 - Katana P.S. Our powerboat deals with powering the windless in the
same fashion.

wrote: Hey all,As I prepare to mount a new windlass on my ‘85 37, I intend to
install a new AGM 12v on the centerline just aft of the holding tank. There is
plenty of room here for a battery platform and accessibility is fair. I’ve done
my homework on voltage drop, cable size, etc. but if you have specific
experience on a 37 with a fwd-mounted battery, I’m mostly ears. My question
relates to ventilation. The under-berth space is fairly large, but I know AGMs
need to gas and I don’t want to create a hazard. Any suggestions for adding an
adequate vent to this area?Thanks to all of the subscribers that contributed to
