Anyone have a good place to mount an onboard battery charger. Not real sure where i should install it to keep it as cool as possible and away from the fuel system ?
it has dual batteries so I thought fairly close to the main one.

thanks

Mine is mounted inside the fuse panel - I totally re-wired that area - to be close to the shore power outlet on the STBD side panel.

My on-board charger is under the starboard stern seat. Both of my batteries are under the port seat. It has worked out very well so far. Easy to get to and easy to monitor.

Mine is located under the rear port seat, mounted to the transom wall. The outlet (with a waterproof rubber cover) to plug the extension cord in is located on the panel facing the cockpit right under the seat. Both batteries are also located under the port seat as well. Hope that helps.

Thanks for the Replies
I have a battery under each jumpseat and I also have the remote oil tank under one. I Will try to mount near the battery switch on the transom
