I understand racerone and yes. It is pretty simplistic. But, everything is checking out to spec and there still appears to be a problem.
As I said, I will water test this weekend and see if the higher RPM will produce more voltage.
I really don't have much experience with this sort of thing...
racerone, what do you mean by that?
Me to stop posting?
I will water test it this weekend and see if the higher RPM will increase the voltage output.

The above readings were at the motor as well as the battery. Same reading everywhere I measured from the rectifier/regulator to the battery.
No music, just a humminbird sonar unit and livewell pump.

@racerone, everything checks out to be in spec.
I need to get the boat in the water to test at upper RPM's.
Outside of that, any ideas as to what the issue could be?
I am running a maintenance fee battery. Could that be the issue?

I have two EverStarts either 24 or 27's. I've had good luck with them over the years. I have the second one in the boat as a backup in case something happened on the lake. We just recently got back from a fishing trip in Quebec Canada. It's pretty remote and I wanted the redundancy for safety...
