Add electric start to F40MLHY - 1999

[Reeloutboard]

Is a electric start kit available for my outboard. Does it come with instructions and can it be done my a weekend mech. I'd like to do it as a project over the winter. At my age within a few years I will probably need. It does start fairly easy for a 40 HP four stroke.

Thanks
