You need to determine what the charging rate is for your alternator.
As Rob said, it should be somewhere around 6 to 8 amps. I don't think
you mentioned the size of the engine - that would help a little.


Wow - great response. Thanks to all - I'm soaking up all the info I
can. To answer this question, I'm running a 115 hp Johnson outboard.
