Friends
I want to connect my two batterys to work together in both outboards. How I do that? I look in West Marine cataloge but only shows a diagram from one engine. Please Help
Thanks

Free, Darn, I just disconnected my setup like that this weekend. Went with a 3 batt system. Motor 1 has a starting and a deep cycle battery(1000 cca's and 320 min reserve for all eclectonics, bilge pumps and livewell) to one switch, motor 2 has one starting batt. I figured if batt 2 ever went dead I could just jump it so I keep jumpers in shrink wrap right in the CC.
