I was was thinking of just leaving the charger out but kind of defeats the purpose. 

id still try any find a way to get a charger in the boat, even if it meant extending the cables so that you could mount it elsewhere...

theres gotta be somewhere in your engine bay to slip it in. Then run your cables to the front? Thats what we did with the alumicraft, charger in the back and ran cables for the TM to the front compartment.

A bank charger is literally one of the best friggin things a person can get for a boat...never having to carry car batteries in and out of the boat is maybe one of the best things ever.

one thing with these on board charger. They put a lot of heat out and that shorts there life.

I always open the cabinet to let heat escape.

Correct me if I am wrong, but not leaving your charger/battery area open while charging is actually extremely dangerous due to the potential build up of hydrogen gas...like you are never supposed to air tight seal something while it is charging.
