That’s what I meant. Add one switch and treat the house batteries as one. Instead of having two switches and treating all like separate banks. Just have one starter battery on one and the two house as one battery paralleled. That way when the switch is on the two house batteries they are combined as one battery and they will also charge as one when riding.

Here is a diagram - just think of your two “house batteries in parallel. Keep in mind this way you will also drain your start battery, don’t want to be on the water with no start. May want to carry a jump pack just in case.

Update - so I’ve been avoiding spending the additional $$ for WetSounds. Have to say pretty happy with Kicker…but…. I replaced my kicker KXM 400.2 amp powering the 4 8” Kicker tower speakers with the WetSounds HT-2 - I confess, the power of the WS made a difference. Much Bigger sound. Kicker was pushing 100w RMS to each speaker @ 2 Ohm, the WS is now pushing 150W RMS to each. Wow! Only comment is the WS runs a bit warmer temperature than kicker which was almost cold to the touch.
