6V battery charging issues - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

I just checked the battery and it's at 7.14v but the charger does not indicate a full charge. The paperwork for the charger indicates that the Output Current Rating for 6v is 1.5a with a Maximum Charge Voltage of 7.4v for a 6v battery. Obviously, I've reached the MCV but the charger does not indicate a full charge. I'm confident that I have a good battery so I'm wondering if I should take the charger back and get a better one.
