My batteries are tucked way in the back on the port side under the fiberglass "body" making access to the battery terminals VERY tight. Any advice on how I could get to the battery terminals more easily?
Thanks

Just a suggestion and I don't know you boat but anything battery related always check Blue Sea first

Thanks. Appears to be more sales oriented and I already have a battery charger. Just hoping for some trick to better access the batteries.

3 screws on each battery "board". Take them out and then you can slide the them forward

yep. remove the 3 screws and the battery, rubber tray and the platform can pull forward and your can get to the battery. you cannot get the battery over the rubber tray unless one removes the 3 screws and pulls the battery out. its a good system for keeping the battery from moving while underway but it is a bit of a pain to get to the negative leads when one just wants to get to the battery
