Solar battery charger
Looking for one to keep the battery charged between trips.

yep, agree with Jim. 10 Watts or so per battery and no controller needed will work as a maintainer but isn't going to charge your batterys from any state of real discharge
If you looking for something to be able to maintain the RV with battery connected to parasitic loads and keep the battery full charged as well as provide recharge capability during storage so that it is fully charged and ready to go anytime then a 100Watt panel with a 6amp Morningstar Sunsaver would work great. HiTech and someothers also use the Landstar brand controller which seems to be very similiar to operating characteristics of the sunsaver but is a lot cheaper. Your talking about around $200 for the 100Watt system self installed (its easy)
