Nope.  Right there behind the tank.  Panel can be removed in 5 minutes.  Already had to do it twice.

Really, how often do you need access to AGM batteries?  It is a two minute operation to get to mine.  Remove the mattress from one of the lower bunks and then pull up the plywood which has holes specifically for pulling it up.

If you have AGM batteries, access to them is almost a moot point. I have 2-8D AGM Lifeline batteries. My first set lasted 7yrs. In that time, my maintenance on the batteries was virtually zero-I didn't even clean the terminals once since the batteries don't out gas-it was like they weren't even there. It was only near the end that one of the batteries shorted out that I disconnected it and ran on just one battery for a few weeks. Good Luck, TomC

sorry..i meant... if the batteries are sitting on top of the engine access covers, under the bed, you'd have to unload them too.
