twin outboard charging systems query
 
I've fallen for the Parker 2830 and got to considering
the twin outboard engine setup - and a question came
to mind:
What kind of arrangement is used for two outboard
engines to charge the starting (and house) batterie(s)?

I'm way, way familiar with aircraft twin-engine charging
systems (separate regulators w/ paralleling wire) - but
have never seen any such nautical systems, and am
especially curious about such a thing when it involves
self-contained powerplants like twin outboards.

Just curious.

You want to chat with Bill Jacobs. He bought a Parker 2820 and equipped
it beautifully and unusually. Last time I looked, he had posted
schematics of his Parker's electrics. Your answer might be there...or
Bill could answer directly.

If Bill hasn't the precise answer for how Parker wires 'em up, contact
Robin Parker at the Parker factory. She can hook you up with the facts.
