    I would not attempt to use a garden tractor style battery on the electric start Gale. These systems draw a lot of current, I would probably get a fairly heavy duty battery (lots of reserve/CCA) because I’m sure there is no generator on this engine.

    From the Gale service manual (http://www.fiberglassics.com/wiki/image … ice003.pdf) it appears there was a generator kit for the 35 and 40 hp engines, but It’s not clear whether it would fit on the 25.
