Paul, if you have any questions feel free to email me off site. Does your 
boat have the nav station or quater berth or the quarter berth on the starboard 
side? DougPegasus1979 LF38

So far I have an AGM start battery and a group 29 wet cell along the port 
engine side.  I purchased the boat with only one battery and no engine 
installed.   I did get the old engine in pieces (aka a basket case) which I 
rebuilt and just installed.  I am still trying to figure out where most things 
went or should go.

   Paul, where are your batteries located? I currently have 2 group 24 starting 
batteries alongside the port side of the engine. 2 T105's in the little cubby 
below the power panels, And a 4D under the starboard quarter berth. The last 
one I am goint to move to under the port quarter berth. Plan on converting the 
starboard q-berth to a nav station.?

Thanks for the link. Great read as most of Maine Sail?s articles are. ?I am 
rearranging the batteries in my engine compartment, and I did not think much 
about the wet cell battery orientation: port-starboard or stern-bow. ? As Maine 
Sail shows, wet cell batteries should be aligned port-starboard on sailboats.
While on my 29 I had all batteries aligned port-starboard, on the LF38 I have 
one wet cell aligned stern-bow which I will look into correcting. ?

I selected AGMs because they don't release gas and are supposed to still work 
on their sides. Mine are located under the aft bunk aligned port to starb. 
Expensive but tough and reliable, have lasted 10 years for me.

Thanks for the link. Great read as most of Maine Sail’s articles are. I am 
rearranging the batteries in my engine compartment, and I did not think much

"In response to the concern of spilling acid in a wet cell on a 
rail-in-the-water-heel" 

Maine Sail has this one covered too. Wet cells won't leak (until you have 
already capsized and then you have bigger problems) if the are oriented the 
correct way in the boat.
