Default What battery for windlass?

It is true – my idea was to install separate battery close to
windlass.
It is also true I do not have any battery (bank) yet.
I have only one starting batter – and for now I use it for all my
instruments.
I did install windlass a couple days ago and I’m going to buy
batteries now.
I’m planning to buy two batteries Motomaster Nautilus Deep Cycle
103AmpHour each. The first idea was to add separate starting battery
for windlass only.
Now my question is – it is enough 206 AmpHour bank for my needs.
I know – you will ask – what is my need?
A little bit more info: So far I have UHF Radio, and sailing
instruments plus installed windlass. I have already installed two
battery boxes 8D size – but 8D are very expensive – and I can’t afford
8Ds now.
I have to add also – I built my boat (Spray 36) and after 7 years of
crazy work – I was sailing first time last summer.

Thx a lot
