Re: [OMC-Boats] What size battery for 1967 Sportsman

SIZE: Group 24

TYPE: SEALED AGM or WET (FLOODED)

PURPOSE: MARINE STARTING (As opposed to Deep Cycle)

I happen to use a pair of Optima Blue tops, but you can get good
service from less expensive (wet) flooded cell batteries.

Take care to keep them clean and remove them and trickle charge them
in the off season and you'll get years of service.
