Single alternator has plenty of amps. The trick is getting the proper voltage on the battery that needs charging. A DC-DC charger will work excellent for this purpose. Still takes 3 to 5 hours to get a flooded battery from low on charge to 95%+.

Also consider some solar. This works all day with no effort. Works in motion or stationary. Does need sun of course. 200 to 400 watts works well for most people. Even if it does not provide all the power solar will significantly reduce generator or alternator run time.
