Question:

Will these two generators in parallel continuesly run 2 1000watt fishing lights and two smaller 60:watt lights and how long would they run until I have to fill up the tanks again. A rough estimate would be greatly appreciated

You're running wattage needed is 2,200. The A-iPower 3,800-Watt Portable Inverter Generators - 3,000 Running Watts - Gas - Manual Start Item # 289-SUA2000i-2 has a running wattage of 3,000 watts so you're using about 75% of its power. A rough estimate would be around 5-6 hours.
