I was impatient to order a box and rigged this one up...
Went to the 99 cent store and bought a plastic box. Then went to the hardware store and bought a cork, and a piece of rubber tubing to push the cork in. Cut a hole in the lid of the container and Gooped the rubber piece to it. Bore a hole through the cork and slid my wires through. Then Gooped the bottom of the container to the bottom of my yak. Got one under the center hatch for my FF, and one under the rear hatch for my bait pump. The Goop holds the container in strong enough to flip my yak upside down with the battery in it, but will rip out easliy if I want.
