JB,

Your logic in the starting battery charging up first and then the
alternator charging the house batteries seems sound.  All that would
worry me is if your house battery got older or was poorer quality than
the starter, it would always be trying to drain it.  In other words,
if one battery goes bad, it could drag the other one down with it.

I have the four Trojan batteries, and I was using Wal-Mart batteries
for the starters.  I have finally given up on the walmart starters,
and have gone to Interstate because the wally world ones would be dead
in 18 months.  It's a real pisser to use your boat six or eight times
and have to replace the batteries, that's like $30 per start.  I would
be really pissed off if my crappy starters killed my Trojan batteries,
but the two systems aren't connected at all.

Sounds like your plan is fine, but if you can throw in an isolator for
cheap, it would seem like a prudent thing to do.
