Re: Choosing the right battery?
A good group 24 marine starting battery should do fine. Ive had good luck with Trojan, I dont even shop around any more. Stay away from Walmart, but Ive heard of people having good luck with Costco brand (who knows who really makes them). Make sure to look for a battery specifically designed for marine starting. Some people like gell, or AGM type batterys, whatever, I like good old lead-acid. Keep an eye on the water level, and pay attention when charging.
