Hello all:<br /><br />I have read thru post after post in the search and can't seem to find my answer so...here goes...<br /><br />Specifics: 20' Wellcraft V20, 200hp Merc + Fishfinder, VHF and lights. <br /><br />Just purchased this boat about two months ago, batteries were shot. The cables were off of one of the batteries so I am not sure if they were wired in series or parallel. What would be the best setup? I purchased new batteries today (Seavolt from Westmarine) Dual purpose 12v's. Should I hook them up pos to pos and neg to neg for the connections or pos to neg? The other question is when I hook up the motor cables to the battery to I need to put the negative on one battery and the positive on the other? Any help you can provide would be greatly appreciated!
