Those of you who have done battery upgrades on your C310: how did you manage battery tie downs? I'm installing 4 GC2s under the settee, replacing two 4Ds. There's a piece of 3/4" (?) plywood making a flat surface there and the 4Ds were sitting in a tray that had been screwed into it. The screws all had corroded away (no surprise) leaving 4 holes in the bottom of the tray, making it less than sealed. A 2x4 and 2x2 were jammed between the batteries and the top edge of the seat to hold them in place.
I'm tempted to use 4 GC2 battery boxes, and strap them down to the plywood (using proper straps). Ideally I would thru bolt the brackets for them, but there's no easy access under the plywood; so they'll have to be screwed in, I guess.
I've got a posting on Maine Sail's forum here (https://forums.sailboatowners.com/index.php?threads/battery-tie-downs.189837/) asking about this, but I wanted to see what fellow C310 owners have done.
