I think that your plan sounds reasonable. My first project is a small boat also, 12' Lasar sailboat hull. My first thought was to get a pair of nice oars as backup. I like to row.
I've read in dozens of sources that generally lead acid (LA) batteries should not be discharged more that 50% if you want them to last. And that's for deep cycle LA batteries. And don't let them sit discharged for long..
So, my question is, are you including a battery capacity meter (BCM)?

Your better off connecting them in parallel. They will last longer that way.. The lower the battery gets the faster it discharges.

Go out on one and as it dies, turn around and head back on #2. Figure going to both will give a final push. I was thinking of adding a 100W solar kit like from Harbor freight.I don't know. Sailing I could tell you. building FG too but Electric power am a complete novice.Looking at a pair of 12V.. from walmart onlineI also have a 9.8 HP outboard but with all the sun in Central Fl. Solar electric is appealingDetailed input for why no good or for an alternative
