wiring

[adam2000]

I have a perko dual battery switch on my boat. I wanna hook up 2 mag 10's and a intellitroll. Should I hook them up to battery 1(starter battery) or battery 2(deep cell) or should I wire them to the switch its self. Im really green when it comes to wiring in a boat

I would wire either battery to a fuse block positive and negative with appropriate fuse for each device.

So get another fuse box and wire that to the battery then hook the Riggers and down speed andtemp to the box?

Your grounds on the batterys can be common, you should sepperate the positive, and each should go from the battery to a 120 amp max fuse. From the fuse then they can go to the switch, and from the switch to your starter for your main motor. Then run a fuse box off the 120 amp fuse from the house battery and make all your connections to that fuse pannel/box. One of the best ways to get things right is use one of the "add a battery kits" that Blue sea puts out, the have an ACR build in so charging your main and house batterys take care of themselfs.
