Edmond,
While I am not familiar with the model batteries you have spec'ed, you are
probably talking about 130 pounds per battery, for a total of around 1,300
pounds on the main level of the boat. As Joe Engle had pointed out, this is a
lot of additional weight to add that high in the boat (batteries are normally
placed as low as possible for stability reasons).
You may want to have a naval architect look at the numbers to make sure you are
keeping the boat's center of gravity within safe limits.
