Battery?

What would be a good battery for a 1966 Evinrude 80hp Starflite?
Thank you.

Group 24 or Group 27 marine starting battery.

Thank you for replying. I have a 2018 ETec 40hp. Would it be ok to use the same battery on both. It's on our pontoon which we use weekly in the warm months. Only take the '60 Starcraft with the '66 out a couple of times a year.

Shouldn't be a problem at all to use the battery on both. If you run any lights, stereo, or electronics on the pontoon I'd suggest the group 27 to give you more amp hours.

Thanks again, appreciate the help.

Purchased from O'Reilly this battery. Works great.
