OK, so I want to buy an on board charger for my boat. Here is what i don't understand, these charger come with 1 to 5 battery bank...Why can't I just buy a one bank changer (my batteries are already in series) and charge all the batteries at the same time....why would I need 2 of 4 bank charger....

If they are all in series you just need a charger that charges that series voltage. That's the big problem...most chargers are 12V. What is your series voltage?
