I did 2 and just tied the two lanyards together.
There is nothing that both motors use together that way there will never be both motors down because of one part.

Bringing this old thread back up again.

My twin outboard Skater has 2 Mercury Racing kill switches:

The starboard kill switch kills both engines. The port kill switch kills the port engine only. That does not seem right. How are these supposed to be wired?
