In addition to doing everything a battery disconnect switch does, battery selector switches permit battery selection (of two or more batteries) for specific purposes including starting engines, running accessories or even recharging. They allow for the use of one or more batteries in systems with one or more engines and facilitate putting batteries in parallel for emergency starting when one or both batteries are substantially discharged.

Perko® 8501DP - Medium Duty Battery Selector Switch
I installed this myself with ease on my 30 foot Wellcraft Suncruiser. It provides the switch needed to start the boats two engines, and I was able to show and sell it shortly afterwards.
