What are mounting connections? Could I hang it on mooring cover then stow under bench when boat in use? Mooring cover completely covers boat.
This Coleman 18-Watt Solar Battery Charger Kit has 4 pre cut screw holes for easy attachment. You definitely could have it on the mooring cover, then move it while using the boat.

Can this charge a dual battery system? What is the 7 amp charge controller and what does it do? Thanks.
The controller allows the battery to safely charge at a consistent voltage, once the battery reaches its fully charged status (around 14.2V DC) the controller regulates the panel down to prevent any overcharge. Once the battery drops to 13V the controller allows charging to begin again.

I keep my trailered boat inside a tall storage shed with only the front part of the shed accessible. I would need to mount this on the roof of the shed, which would require about 40 feet of wire to get to the batteries. Can I do this and how to do mod?
Yes. The Coleman 18-Watt Solar Battery Charger Kit can be mounted on the top of your shed. I suggest consulting with an electrician about splicing the wiring so that you get a good connection and the appropriate size wire. There may be some wattage lost when traveling the 40 feet to your boats battery.
