To access the battery in a DAUNTLESS 15 is hard.

Give me a suggestion for creating a door or a removable access plate on the starboard side of the console of a DAUNTLESS 15.

How much access is needed?

Perhaps a deck plate would provide sufficient access, and they don’t cost $750.

Compare at:

Or perhaps a hatch:

Before you cut into the side of the console, make sure the side of the console is a flat surface. If the surface is not flat, making a nice opening will be more difficult than if it were a flat surface.
