Chris is the expert on these, but I have some familiarity with them. It is an electric start outboard – the flywheel is replaced by the rotating mass of the electric motor/starter/generator. I’m sure somebody will point you to the threads that have pics. The ammeter displays the current generated while it’s running, to keep the battery fully charged. The flywheel magneto/coils/points system is replaced with a battery driven coil/points system.
