if those are the ones i think they are
they 16.5 working volts
yes you will wire them parallel plus on plus..neg on neg
use a 25~30 amp PWM controller with two set points and LCD display to tell you whats going on
us 8ga or larger wire from panels to controller
and 4ga wire from controller to batteries
this should work OK with a minimum of FUSS
how much time you spent at AND away from the cabin, will determine your set points
13.2v float if your only there on week ends or less
if you live there and can tend to the batteries you can raise that a little
