[QUOTE="turbotodd, post: 332928, member: 7376"] Yes it'll be fine. You are correct in your thinking that if the outboard wouldn't charge one battery, it's definitely not going to charge two of them. There is an isolator made for just this purpose. Accessories run off of one battery but the outboard can crank off of the other, and will charge both. I think Minn Kota made it. I installed one (actually 2) of them on a customer's boat a while back. Why he wanted 2 I don't know, when one would have worked fine. [/QUOTE]
