Does the charger have to be connected straight to the battery or can you connect it to the thru hull connector where the drive unit plugs in?

How will the upcoming solar panel be connected?

Thanks

The charger has to be plugged directly to the battery. The solar panel will have a cable and connect directly to the battery. I would imagine a new through hull fitting as well.

So there's three connectors on the battery?

1-Charger In
2-Solar Panel In
3-Output to Motor

Charger-in is the same as motor cable. You have to unplug the motor to charge. Solar is separate as is the port for the throttle, so yes... there are 3 ports in a v2.
