I have a pontoon boat with twin electric drive trolling motors that run on 24v.
I have a few questions about the way I have wired everything up. I have drawn a pic of what I have going on.

Is this setup correct?
if I run my outboard from the same batt. as my console will bath batteries be charging while motor is running?

I have quick disconnect on both negative terminals >I disconnect to isolate for charging.

Have a look and see if I have messed this thing all up.

If you buy a 2 bank charger(at least most 2 bank chargers)there is no need to disconnect when you charge. The grounds are isolated on the 2 banks.
