    Is there any harm if you just rarely and I mean rarely use a 12 volt battery to turn the 6 volt starter on these Buccaneer’s, I have an electric start 12 horsepower 1956 Buccaneer and also a 1957.  These are mostly saw horse queens.  I don’t want to damage the starters given how rare these Gale electric start models are.  If 6 volts is needed does any one know of a good source?  Thanks, Shell in Oregon.
