Here is my dilemma. Purchased a 1996 formula 23' with 454 merc bravo3. The boat has 4 optima batteries going thru a perko switch with an on board charger. Boat has a Rockford amp, 2 subs and four 61/2" speaker setup. The guy I purchased boat from said that when he was at the beach he would turn switch to #2 and run the stereo, then when he would leave he would switch to #1 if batteries were low on switch #2. Then when he was underway he would switch to all to charge all 4 batteries. I took this as saying he had the stereo only going thru 2 batteries(switch#2) and the other batteries were for everything else(switch #1). I know this can't be true because when I turn switch to any position the stereo will be active. Is there a way to stop the stereo from coming on when I have the switch on #1? If I go to the beach and do not want to use the stereo I have to turn switch to off or it will drain all 4 batteries same as when I pull boat out of water I have to make sure the switch is off.
