Ive got a jackson cuda. I didn't think about glue, how's it holding up? And what type did you use?

I used the Marine Goop, it eventually got loose, but it is easy to redo.

Solid ideas gentleman. Thank you!

I used 2" wide commercial velcro. You can find it at Home Depot.

That thing is really strong. The adhesive in the back is really strong too and it won't unglue. One morning I flipped 4 times in a row (don't ask) and the battery had not moved.

Drops in my back hatch -- no screws, no glue, no fasteners. Easy access for recharging.

Looks like this:

Also clamps vertical if you want to put it in the front hatch against the mast holder.

I tried the velcro method, it did not work for long.
