Position of Liferaft - Beneteau Ocenais 393

I have a 393 and I am planning a big trip next year requiring a liferaft to be fitted to the boat. Does anyone have a 393 on which they have fitted a liferaft? What is the best position given location of skylights and hatches? Not so keen on pushpit with extra weight at the stern. Any recommendations much appreciated.

I have a B473 and the liferaft (in cradle) is fitted between the mast and the traveller.

This is a 393, looks to have a similar setup to Nigel's 473

This charter website page shows the liferaft in the same place on a 393
