Thanks...
The only time both are hooked together is when starting for the day and running the engine while cruising. When stopped for several hours at say a sandy area, use only one and leave it as the only connected battery (assuming boat starts) till back at the marina. Then I cut it off and they have to switch back on if they need to move the boat to fork lift. Supposedly they cut off battery switch completely before putting back into storage area. Their policy and required me to have a cut off switch. Hopefully no two batteries are connected at the same time that radio, etc. is on without engine running (except when starting for first time of the day).
