Do agm batteries need to be installed in a battery box like a flooded has to be assuming the terminals are isolated?

Dave,
I'm going to say no. My AGM's (12) on board are happy sitting on a platform blocked in place. I'm not sure why the Flooded ones would need a box other than to hold them in place. They do need to be strapped down I guess if you get rolled even on a boat but I can't see why a box would be good for any of them. I attached a picture of mine. The supports will keep them in place but if I flip a 41ft cat I got lots of problems to deal with other than loose sealed batteries.
