What battery for Tohatsu MSF20?

[Chris:]

Hi,
i got a brand new Tohatsu MSF20E with electro starter.
What is a proper battery for this engine?
What type of battery you use for this engine?

Is it a better option if I would put a deep cycle battery vs a conventional lead acid car battery?

Thanks.

Group 24 marine starting battery is fine.
