Abstract
A plug holder for installing a male plug end of a marine battery charger on a marine vessel includes an outer housing, a removable sleeve, and a backstop. The outer housing has a front end defining a plug opening and a back end defining a back opening, wherein the outer housing is attachable to a vessel hull and configured to hold a male plug end of the marine battery charger within the outer housing such that it is accessible through the plug opening. The removable sleeve fits within the outer housing and is shaped to secure the male plug end within such that it does not move when connecting or disconnecting thereto. The backstop is removably connectable to the back end of the outer housing to cover the back opening. The backstop is configured to retain the removable sleeve and the male plug end within the outer housing.
