how do I recharge my battery bank?

So I have installed (2) 5250 CCA battery banks on my 22ft boat. One of the banks is strictly for the electric motor (docking and emergency use only). The other bank is for all other electrical appliances and acceressies (12v parallel circuit). I want to use wind, solar and water powered generators to recharge and maintain my battery banks. I have a continuous load of .5 kw with a max load of 1 kw/hr on the acceressies bank and a 1000 kw with a max of 4000 kw/hr load on the e-motor bank (12v). If I divide the power retrieval amongst the 3 charging systems (wind, solar and water) what are the sizes of the charging units needed to recharge and maintain both batter banks? What other components would be need to full fill this system?

What motor should I use for a DIY Mini Wind Turbine?

I read that stepper motors from old tape drives or dot-matrix printers are low rpm and good for making wind turbines, but I can’t find either of those for the life of me. Are there any other common household items that would have a suitable motor to use as a wind power generator?

What should I hook my small wind turbine up to?

I am building a small wind generator out of a plastic propeller and a small RC motor for the generator. I am planning to mount it outside somewhere. What should I power with this generator? Give me your opinion.
