Bass Buggy 18 - Tight fit ... where to place on-board charger?

I bought a Bass Buggy 18 (2016). I am putting a Terrova 80lb. With 2 Group 27 under the console, I'm not sure there is room for the charger (ProSport 20Plus 3 Bank). I was wondering if there are other creative places to mount the charger? I'm not absolutely sure I cannot get it all in the console, but it is definitely going to be extremely tight. Or for that matter... are there other creative locations to put the batteries? I'm hoping there are others who have solved this problem already! Thanks in advance...

Looking at an overhead pic of this toon .... I'd say check and see if it would fit between the console & the side of the boat. You might be able to bolt it to the outside of the console and run the leads around and under the console to the batteries. You may or may not have to move the fire extinguisher, but if it's mounted to the floor it should be out of the way. I'm just going by the picture of the toon & the dimensions of the charger (14x8x6), but that looks like the most promising place to me and still have it easily accessible & visible (but still out of the way & not crammed in under the console).

Thanks ... I had that spot at the top of list too. Do you think that the charger would get too hot to mount directly against the plastic console? That was one of the things I was a little concerned about....

Put washers between it for air to move.

That charger should only be 2-5-10 amps. So heat shouldn't be issue. Issue is keeping water off of it.

Their website specs says it's 100% waterproof so there shouldn't be any issue with that ... :dono

Mounted mine at the stern, outside of the rails.

If it's easy for you would love to see a picture.
