    They should. I used one of these trays from ionic for my 519. https://lithiumhub.com/product/ionic...-battery-tray/

    Can probably take measurements from there and double check on your boat.

    My 519 didn't have enough room on port side of battery charger for the tray to fit 3 of the 50ah but in a 520 I would imagine you should have enough room.

    Yes, they are considerably smaller than a regular size 12v battery.

    Yes. I have three 100ah Ionics on the port side of my battery compartment in a BBT tray. Then two 125ah parallel on the starboard side.

    The garage space or inside the bilge area? I'm guessing the door behind the boat isn't opening. Lol

    Yeah my garage is tight, it's just a standard 2 car. That door going into the house is an inside opening one, so no issues getting by the motor.

    I just last weekend installed 3-50 ah (Ghost TM) and 1-125ah (dedicated to electronics) batteries in my '22 Z519. I left the group 31 AGM in place for cranking, pumps, and lights.
