I would think so. The bilge is huge.

I have that exact boat with that configuration and there is plenty of room for those batteries!

Keep in mind that 29 and 31 series are the same physical size. That gives you more options in battery brands seeing as JCI is the only manufacturer that I am aware of that actually uses 29 to designate that size battery.

29 or 31 not so much my point. Just wanted to hear from someone that had the 4 battery config that there was room.I assume those 4 are mounted in 2 double trays end to end?Is there still room for power pole hydraulics?

Ok. Makes senseI think it would be great if Bass Cat made a shallow drop-in compartment that would reside above the pumps in this situation.

Like others have stated, plenty of room without the drop in tray. Mite even could modify it to make it somewhat useful. I went the old route, built a bracket and hung both on the rear seat post.
