Battery Replacement Access

2019 C-302

I've looked and have yet to find a detailed description of the accessing the 3 batteries on the starboard side in order to replace them.

I've not accessed the port/house batteries, but the general consensus seems to be that the 4 batteries are on a boar that must have a few screws removed and then there is enough cable to slide the board to the aft and have access to all of the batteries. After lifting out the fish box, of course. And there may or may not be another screw holding a bunch of wires that will need to be removed in order have the wiring allow the board to slide.

Are the engine/thruster batteries on the starboard side the same? I can see they sit on a board, bit glancing in there doesn't look like there is a bunch of slack wiring.

In this day of YouTube, has no one actually produced a quick video of replacing all of the batteries on this boat?

Yes, the engine and thruster batteries on the starboard side are designed to be removed in the same way as the house (unscrew the couple screws which secure the board and slide it aft). I have seen a few of the 302's which have had a secondary battery charger or other various items mounted to the walls which impede the board from sliding due to interference from the batteries. In these instances it can be necessary to remove or relocate these components to allow the board and batteries to be slid aft as designed.
