I have four 31 series batteries in my boat. I need to make some holders. Right now I have jugs locking them in from moving. Not the best way but it’s working good right now to get me by
Got some off Amazon, well ordered, attwood, looked good we will see
How do you plan to mount the new battery box? Mine are riveted in and don't see a way to use a wrench with a bolt/nut. I'm going with a 31 series on the starting battery and thought about the 2 trolling as well. My boxes measure right at 13" ID, going to be close with the 31's
I have 4 of the 27 group batteries, 3 on passenger side. I used this and it fits snug on that side.

I have 3 group 31. Two on the passenger side with the oil tank and the cranking battery with the 3 bank charger on the driver side. I also have a group 27 on the driver side to run the two helix 10’s and just use a regular charger for it.
The attwood units came in, very nice, i am going to use blind nuts, like a rivet style deal
The type of blind nut that sucks up like a wall anchor. I did some research after posting and found rivnuts in a couple of styles from 8-32 to 3/8-16 thread. Could only find the grip length on the 1/4-20. If they are long enough, this looks like a good alternative to using screws to hold the pan in place and using bolts instead.

I bought two nice sets metric and sae, paid over 100 for each. I am going to use 1/4 x 20 and use allen head stainless bolts to hold them in.
Set came with many lenghs and can order others. Will cover them in water proof grease prior to install also
