Guest On board charger

[willy]

Just got my Christmas present, Guest on board dual charger, for you guys that have these can I ask where did you mount yours and how, what access did you use to plug in A/C cord. Going to install mine next week weather permitting. I have the full transom ex/sea drive motor on bracket 85 V20.

I think RAP has one

Willy, I got two...both are mounted w/in reach of batteries with wires that came on the chargers...try not to add length unless you just gotta...if batteries there, inside that big ole full transom would be great!!...

Use HEAVY-DUTY drop cord as SHORT as possible...which charger didja get?...

Guest Charge Pro 2611a I'm just not sure where to or how to mount it in the transom area, what to actually screw it into

HEY WILLY, YOU CAN ALWAYS GLUE IN PLACE USING 3M 5200 MARINE SEALANT - NO SCREW HOLES - ALSO CK THE GUEST WEB SITE, THEY MAY HAVE A BULKHEAD CONNECTOR THAT YOU CAN INSTALL - ON ONE SIDE IS THE BATTERY CHARGER, ON THE OTHER IT HAS A WATER PROFF COVER YOU LIFT TO PLUG AN EXTENSION PLUG INTO

Thanks Bud, saw one of those on a boat at the boat show once, probably worth doing I'll check into it. Franco you would trust just using 5200 to mount it huh

[Franco]

HECK YEAH, THAT STUFF IS TOUGHER THAN CHINESE ARITHMITIC

[willy]

It looks like it has to be screwed in on all four corners, has to be open to cool across the back, so no 5200. Going to find a spot tommorow

5200 wont stick to starboard that well - but if you put a big glob of 5200 where the screw holes are on the charger, you could make it stand out a bit more than it would if it was screwed down. You could always substitute a piece of water resistant wood for the starboard and epoxy it to the bulkhead, then coat the wood with 5200 - it'll be there longer than you could imagine

[willy]

gotcha Bud ;)
