Default converting to 24v with no room???

I have a basstracker tx170 with a 25hp I just bought. I want to change to a 24 volt trolling system. Unfortunately there is no room whatsover to do anything in the back of the boat. What is my best bet as far as accomplishing this task? To me it looks like I need to downsize my gas tank(don't use much in a 25hp anyway) to make room for a 2nd deep cycle battery, then if I'm lucky I may have enough room to squeeze an on board battery charger in.( I hope so)!!! thanks for any help

Do you have a buit in tank or portable. On my late 80's model TX17 I had room to upgrade to a 24v system. I didnt put the on board cgarger in cause 1 I didnt want the added weight and I had just bought new chargers anyways. If I remeber correctly you can slide the battery tray forward or tuen it sideways and make room. Been awhile so its kinda hard working from memory. A pic would be great and I could be more specific.
