alternator question

I have 2 voltage regulators - one for everything but the windlass battery and one for the windlass battery. The windlass one burned up and it's going to be 3 weeks before I can get a new one. I don't need the windlass battery for this period and want to disconnect it. The alternator is putting 16 volts in and out of the fried regulator and this goes to the battery. Not sure where to disconnect - at the battery, at the regulator?
