    I would and I do run 2 deep cycle batteries for my trolling motor, and 1 cranking battery for everything else. They do make deep cycle starting batteries but they have less capacity and charge slower since a deep cycle battery is best suited for a trickle charge. In saying this if you fish all day without starting your big motor frequently you may find yourself with a dead starting battery when it is time to go home. This would be similar to listening to the radio all day without starting your car.

    Yep, shorts, I've pull started my 75 after not starting the big motor for a period of time...

    never tried pull starting my 40, should probably try it sometime just to see if I can do it, that 75 must have been a handful

    Its actually easier than one would think!!! There was one night where I thought I was going to spend it on the lake... Luckily it finally turned over and I was glad cause it was midnight on an October night, so it would have been cold and long...
