Earl: My 1977 M-17 has the battery where you describe. With the outboard, battery and lazarette all on the port side, I expected the boat to list to port, but if it does, it isn't noticeable. I've quit worrying about it.

When I bought my boat the battery was located next to the V birth bulkhead even with the aft end of the porta potty.
Is that the stock location? More forward and on the centerline would appear more appropriate. Where's yours?
