Complete change-over to Victron equipment

[ScubaRx]

This video will give you a basic outline to some of the upgrades we had done earlier this summer on the Outlaw Oliver.

For those that have never had the chance to see the interior of the Outlaw Oliver, be sure to look around during this short video.  Steve and Tali have switches for switches and extra "lifts" for the beds that increase storage room a bunch.

Steve, cool vid. So glad to refer you to Easton at Inverter Services and he got you all taken care of. He handled all your upgrades exceptionally well. As previously post, Easton installed the same outstanding and comprehensive Victron system on XPLOR Hull # 634 after we returned from our 54-day trip to Maine last fall.
 

Nothing like a super clean professional upgrade/install. I highly recommend Inverter Services and Mr. Easton sure knows his way around Olivers!

I see Steve was able to fit three 300ah batteries into his tray. Didn't you have to remove yours to make them fit? Different size trays, or did  battery dimensions change?

Chris, I wrote about this in my install thread.

You can keep the tray if you remove it first and machine cut the steel back wall off the tray and reinstall. The inside battery would hang an inch off but I believe Steve told me they added a longer base sheet inside the tray. Either way 3 in line will just barely fit inside.

Notice the change in direction of the straps to hold three together on the tray. Too bad they didn’t show this part of the installation in the video.

I was going this route but after removing my old tray, the sliders were crusty and the tray itself weighs 30 LBS. I prefer it without the tray which allows for 2-3” extra height too. I can check/tighten the bolts and remove the main ground as they sit on 3/4” rubber and foam insulation surround.  With the tray, it has to be rolled out for battery post inspection or disconnect.
