What is the smallest and lightest battery that will start a 2001, 4 stroke, 25 hp Yamaha F25ESHZ outboard. I have used a 24 since the engine was new. The engine is on a 11 foot dingy that hangs on davits. I'm interested in reducing the total weight. Jim

Hi Jim,
I have been a happy owner of a 2001 25 hp four stroke motor since 2001.
The owner's manual will tell you you need a min of 380 amps at - 17.8 degrees Celsius. B.S.
I have been using agm group U-1 battery on my 25hp since 2001. I am on my 2nd battery, thinking of getting a new one in 2011, just because. FYI the weight of the U-! seavolt battery is 24 lbs. 240 MCA . Cost about 120 form west Marine. 2 of them in ten years ain't bad at all. Oh, the U-1 is cute, small, and light.
Use it and you will not loose it.....Comment
