Yacht setup

Looking to complete a setup I have inherited.

I have 200w solar panels with victron blue solar 75/15

2 12.8v 90AH batteries (which I plan to connect in parallel) with the black cables coming out of the side

A victron multi plus compact 12/800/35

I am going around in circles trying to find out what additional extras I need to buy to complete this setup.

The starter battery is currently on a different circuit.

I have seen lots of setups that cover how to connect via 12/200 and v e bus but not one schematic that shows how I connect tbe following together;

Multi plus (shore power)

Bms

Mppt solar

Alternator

All connected into the lithium batteries

Surely this has been done many times.

Thanks in advance

Check out this very comprehensive wiring diagram - I think it incorporates everything you mentioned;
