Boat: 1998 Beneteau 352
Goal- I want to isolate my starter battery from the house bank.
Problem - I keep forgetting to flip that damn switch and the starter battery drains.
Info - I can isolate the starter battery from the house battery by removing the jumper on the battery switch panel - or at least I think I can. The next question is how do I recharge the starter battery after starting? To clearify - the starter and house batteries will need to be charged by the alternator while running the engine. How do I control both battery banks, not overcharging the starter battery ( now that it has been isolated) and recharging the house batteries?
Am I missing something?
