be carfull not much you don't realy want either as so many marine batteries are heavy versions of car batteries.. what you want is a true deep cell battery not a marine starting battery or a car battery.. the difference is the deep cell is designed to be deeply discharged then recharged, where a car battery is ment to remain fairly charged at all times.. also a true deep cell has way more capacity than a simular sized starting battery.

here are some good pages on batteries
