No, if they are wired in series you have 36 volts assuming each battery is a 12 volt battery. They will have to be wired in parallel to output 12 volts. In that case you can charge them with a 12 volt charger but it will take 3 times as long as charging just one 12 volt battery.

Will wiring 2 batteries in series hurt your boat?

Depends on the battery size. If your boat is a 12 volt system and you wire two 12 volt batteries in series you then have 24 volts. If the batteries are 6 volt batteries you will be fine. If you have a 12 volt system on your boat and want to use two batteries then wire two 12 volt batteries in parallel. You will still have 12 volts but will have double the amperage available and this will extend the running time of the batteries.
