Best Answer

You have a loose connection somewhere if you are measuring the 12 V from a true ground to your house ground. Start at the Ground Rod outside near your meter and make sure the wire is connected securely to the rod. You may want to remove it and clean off the wire and connector with a wire brush. Then check connection at the box and you should see a "Bonding screw" that bonds Neutral to Ground.

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.
