Default Mbss

Good afternoon all!
I am planing on move or replacing my mbss from the engine bay to another location. And was wondering if it has to be waterproof?
Has anyone done it on a 2400SCR, what is a good location?
Thanks for any and all info and help!
Don

I had contemplated moving mine to a waterproof box in the cockpit. I was tired of moving the cooler and spinning the table out of the way, to open the hatch to crawl half-way to switch the battery switch.

I would prefer that they stay dry.

If you have no fear of making a hole in the cockpit area you could put a storage cabinet and mount it in there.

That would be to easy!
2400 SCR Maxums don't have storage in the cockpit except for a area umder the aft seating that I store fenders and dock lines in! And it don't hold much!
Thanks
Don

http://images0.boattrader.com/resize...3346 <br /> Is this the same layout as your 2400?

Hi Mike!
Yes that is just like mine!
Note that there is storage under the stern seating that I use for ropes and fenders! Not a lot of room for the MBSS if I do a receded installation!
