To get 24V from 2 12 V battery's Yo hook up the positive pole + of one of the battery's to the negative pole - of the other one. you will be left with a positive pole on each battery wit no connection on them The voltage between them is 24.

If you want the battery to have the same voltage but have more amperage you connect positive to positive and negative to negative.

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.

NO. Absolutely not, you must hook them in parallel. Two 12 volt batteries hooked in series will give you 24 volts with the same A/H of one of the batteries. Hook them in parallel and you will still have 12 volts and double the A/H of one of the batteries.
