If both batteries are the same age and type they will come close enough to
charging equally with the switch in the both position. Wait till you price
the wire you will need too.

And thus why I still have one battery.

Thats what I do on my 24 footer and it works fine. I usually start up
and run in the "both" position so that everything gets charged up. If
we stop to anchor, I switch to the #2 position until ready to leave.


Do you have any arrangement to make sure both batteries charge the same or
do you do alright with the practice you described? I didn't realize I
would have to deal with more issues than a second battery and a switch!
