"I have a 20 year old Carver 2
"I have a 20 year old Carver 28' with twin 305 Crusaders.
The PO had changed the battery set up, and I want to go back to original. I have one (batt 1, batt 2, both) switch, with two batteries. The common stud on the switch does to both engine starters, and as such, goes to both alternators.
I have read that it is not good to charge the batteries from both alternators at the same time.
It does not matter what position the switch is in, both engines are connected together.
Will this work, is this the Carver Factory wiring, and has worked for 20 years?
Any help would be greatly appreciated."
