Charger for 2 separate and different size Lifepo4 banks?

Hi!

We are upgrading our sailboat's lead house batteries to lifepo4. We wave two separate house battery banks which, due to space limitations, will be different sizes. Main battery (bank) would be 200Ah and reserve is 100Ah.

What charger (230V) would you recommend for this setup? Would a single Blue Smart IP22 12/30 (or Phoenix Smart 12/50) with 3 outputs work, or would it be better to add a separate 1-output chargers for each battery?

As long as the battery banks have the same voltage requirements, any of the multi output chargers will work.
