Boys I took the batteries out for the winter, and thought I took a pic of the connections before unhooking everything...... fast forward to now, no luck. Can someone be a bro and take a photo of the battery connections so I can see what goes where?

The wires should be labeled at the terminal end.
That would be awesome! But unfortunately, that isnt the case for me. Maybe the dealer didn't do that for me? Either way, looks like I can trace the wires back to the respective battery switches to see which goes to house and which goes to starting. And I'm assuming the negatives are connected together anyway to achieve the series start.

This is on a 2021 252. It might be the same. I did the exact same as you and took a pic before winterizing. For the most part, after getting the batteries in the right direction, the wires have memory and will only connect to what they reach anyway.

Your positive (red) wires should for sure have factory house/start labels on them. If they don't, you can easily trace them back to the transfer switch.
