Looking for a jump start box for a 175 Optimax. I know the Opti's need 885 - 1000 CCA batteries and was considering a NOCO G40 Genius Boost 1000 amp Lithium jump start. Will this handle the load?
I did a search but couldn't find the info. Thanks.

Several threads on this subject down in the 3 liter forum below. I carry the Weego 66. Have not had to test it on my 225 yet - thankfully. I do still carry jumper cables.
Since it is not a substitute for a properly rated, fully charged cranking battery, whatever you can afford to have floating around for a dire emergency should be fine.
If your battery is toast- or 100% dead, the "jump box" probably won't be of much help.
