So I'm working adding a second battery to my 195S with the Blue Sea Mini Add-a-Battery kit which includes the ACR. I'm going to be installing the ACR on the load side to that my onboard dual-bank charger can charge each battery independently while the boat is stored in my garage. This afternoon I removed the bench seat to get better access to the port-side rear locker where there battery is located. However, on the 195 series boats, there doesn't seem to be a lot of room to work with for mounting the the ACR & Blue Sea switch. I was planning to mount them to the starboard just like the stock battery switch is mounted, but this isn't the easiest area to access and there isn't a ton of space. Any suggestions from others with 195 series boats who have added this switch + ACR kit? Where did you mount yours?

I'm planning to install the second battery directly next to the stock battery location for ease of access. Installing it further aft would free up some more space in the locker, but I just see it being very difficult to finagle a heavy battery any further aft.

Any suggestions on the install locations are much appreciated. Thanks!
