Default Solar Panel Install\Wiring (novice)

Hi,
I'm looking at installing a 30 watt solar panel\on my boat. I'd like
to charge both the starter and domestic batteries. Can anyone give me
some ideas on how I'd wire a setup like this. Also I have a regulator
which is used for a 240 volt charger. Will I need a seperate regulator
for the solar panel?

Cheers


Yes, you need a separate regulator for the solar panel. They are pretty
cheap.
As far as charging both batteries is concerned, how do you charge both from
other sources? Is there a combiner already installed?
