I have to replace a dead battery in my Key Largo 17.5 ft. center console. Getting to the battery in the console is a nightmare task -at least it is for my lazy butt. I want to know if there is an easier way to get to this battery than going through the tiny opening at the bottom of the console? The boat seat is jammed right next to the console, so there is little room for my fat buttocks to get in the space next to the opening leading to center console access hole. I was thinking maybe I could remove the console, but I would probably jack up the steering. Anybody ever do this on a center-console boat? Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
