Riviera Battery Banks


On my single engine Albin 25 I had a start battery and 2 golf cart batteries with an ACR distributing the charge. I loved the leave-it-alone aspect and let the ACR make all the decisions, aside from on/off.
Now on my Riv there are 2 Group 27s and a regular old fashioned 1/2/both/off switch, and I have to rely on a 36 year old voltmeter at the helm. The batteries look to me like those not-true-deep-cycle marine batteries.
Should I be satisfied with this setup? What is the group wisdom on retro-fitting these older battery arrangements?
