I would rather have added a dedicated battery for the generator and a battery switch of jumper cables to access another bank. On the oceans,...
LOLOLOLOL it has NOTHING to do with any of that, and little you can do to correct it. It surfs on the side of the keel/hull. It's a hull design...

The Garmin radios work good. I have them on one yacht, the only issue I have with them and it's a minor one is that the plastic knobs are thin...
