I'm getting my new (to me) boat ready for the water. I checked the batteries and noticed that 3 of my batteries (boat has 4) are not secured. Each battery does have a black plastic battery box with a lid, but the boxes are not secured. In other words, the batteries/battery boxes are free to slide around the engine compartment. That doesn't seem quite right to me. I looked around in there, but didn't see any points where one would attach a battery.
How do you mount/secure a battery/battery box in the engine compartment? What sort of hardware is normally used?
Thanks!
Additional background info:
Boat is a Larson Escape deckboat. The engine compartment is big. The boat has a 350 v-8 in it, and there is a platform on each side of the motor that is about 2'x3'. The boat has 4 batteries. Three of them are in the engine compartment, and one of them is in the under-bench seat storage area.
