"enough" amps depends on how fast you think they should charge. Even a 10 amps charger is probably "enough" if you have 24 hours or so to fully charge.

Your 75 amp charger should be plenty for typical usage, but the high end rigs typically have a 100-120 amp charger for faster recovery.

Enough amps also depends on what the batteries can absorb as their rate of charge. For that you will need to check the manufacturer.
