Default Alumacraft Competitor 165 Charger Location?

I have a 2014 Alumacraft Competitor 165 and I'm installing an onboard charger.
There are a couple of places where it would fit but does anyone have a recommendation?
If you have one on your boat where is located and are you happy with it?

Thanks all!

Where are your TM batteries? My crestliner has a spot under the front deck under the centre rod box for TM batteries and a charger. Works nice.

I have a 2013 Competitor 165. My charger is mounted to the inside of the right hand storage compartment up front. Close to the battery and easy to access when the boat is on the trailer.

On my 2013 I put it in rear battery compartment. It is a 3 bank mounted vertically on the drivers side of the compartment. I did move the starter battery a little to center of the boat to give enough clearance for the charger and ran wire extension to the front 2 trolling motor batteries. I'm using a Promariner ProSport 20 Plus. I can get pics if you need on the install.

Mine is mounted on the back vertical wall of the port storage compartment closest to the bow. Works great and really close to the in floor battery storage.

Thanks for all the responses.
I hadn't considered the front storage or trying to move the rear battery over.
I'll see if the battery move is an option.

I have a 175 and the charger is mounted under the driver side console

Plug is easy to get to plug in when at home or when boat is a the dock
