Can current shunt be mounted in helm rather than at battery?
Balmar Battery Monitors
My batteries are under my leaning post. But my best place to mount this is inside helm near n2k bus. I’ve got around 0.3v drop between batteries and helm distro. Can I adjust for that on the voltage display and soc (ie 12.2v = 12.5v)

No, sorry, its not going to give you accurate readings unless the shunt is close to the battery.
