Please see our battery article. It will greatly assist you in determining the proper type battery for an outboard:

One extra tip; Avoid supermarket & automotive store brand batteries. And always trickle-charge your battery overnight with a battery charger before each & every use of the boat. This will give your battery, regulator & stator optimum life.
