If you go to the link shown below, you will see some photos of the battery box under construction. The box will sit on a tray over the V of the front of the trailer, between it and the post that holds the winch. The electric winch will sit on a bracket (to get the angle of dangle right) in place of the existing hand winch. I'll attach a photo of the tray, bracket and winch to the link at a later date.
The idea is as follows. There is a connection to the car by means of a 13 way cable and 13 way European plug. This enters the front of the box through the bottom white gland. The wires for the fridge (pos + neg) are split out of the cable and connected to the battery by a pair of croc clips. I'll fit an on/off switch for this connection later. I suspect I'll have to find some sort of regulator to control the current flow but that's a problem for another day.
The rest of the cable (without the fridge leads) then connects to at Euro socket on the rear of the box. The trailer board will connect to this socket.
The leads from the winch will enter the box through the upper white gland, and connect to the battery via a single pole on / off switch (which you can see installed but yet to be connected). The battery is secured fore and aft by some ply spacers and will be held down by some strong bungee.
The box also has space to hold all the stuff that secures the boat to trailer and also my "sheerleg top". It's the triangular piece of plywood beside the battery. This fits on top of two bits of al tube (ex hang glider) over which I lead the jib halliard as part of my "get the mast up with less effort" rig.
Also on the link is a brief video of a prototype model for a set of "bomb doors" in place of the plastic bits in the outboard well.......the push rod is a piece of fibre pole as used in llightweigth tents.
