Let me know the results after you try the tests on the reference material for the Cobra. Sounds like a Diode on the alternator or else the voltage regulator. Remember the amp meter is monitoring net current in or out of the battery.
Did you check the output of the charging system? As for the boat, due to its probable long storage times, I'll guess the battery plates are sulfided up. Charge the battery, disconnet it from the boat and see if it still dies...Let me know. Drop me an email off line if you like...
