It seems that my boat engine can charge the battery because I find the battery is always full. Is there seperate line for charging? If so I can connect the charging to the battery for trolling motor. My boat is 1978 Chrysler 105HP.

You can connect the two batteries with a Battery Combiner. Make sure to get a Marine-cert. one

The outboard charger can assist the trolling, but don't expect it to fully charge it. Use an ACR to connect the 2 bats. This way it will always charge the start bat first after starting
