But the NFL Linebacker you can use as a grinder on windy days.
I agree with carrying two batteries. Go to west marine and buy a battery
combiner. With one of these you can keep the spare battery fresh and fully
charged. When the starting battery dies move the spare into full time duty
and buy a new spare.

The consensus from the owner's forum for my boat on emergency starting a
2 cylinder Yanmar seems to be this:
For emergency starting with dead batteries, carry one of the following
on board. A Westmarine emergency battery pack or an NFL linebacker
properly trained and housebroken.
So why not just carry a two batteries instead of the emergency pack? You
can get AGM starters from an auto shop at about $100. With the low self
discharge you can jut keep one in reserve for the weekend.
