I am currently in the need of a cranking battery for my 07 90 H/P Merc 4 stroke and I am unsure if I should just get a dedicated automotivr starting battery, a Marine starting battery or just go with a deep cycle dual battery??
My boat has 2 batteries, one for trolling and accessories and the other which I just use strictly for starting, which is what I need now.
I was/am thinking of just buying a regular cranking/starting car type battery but will it last and be able to withstand occasional rough conditions at times?
I just seen a dedicated Marine Starting battery from Interstate and I am currently leaning that way as well but I obviously need some advice.
Also, around what amount of CC amps will I need? I don't use this boat/engine in the cold weather intentionally, only spring/summer/fall with the majority being summer. June, July and August.
Thanks in advance.
