Battery Needed for FICHT

I am trying to determine how many CCAs I need for my Battery. I have 17' Center Console. I would like to run (Start & Electronics) off a single battery if this is feasible. So, I guess I'd need a starting battery with some reserve deep cycle capability. Any and all suggestions would be appreciated. My Evinrude 'Operators Guide' simply say Minimum:500 CCA.

I would probably be running a livewell pump, a stereo, and FF with engine off for periods up to an hour or so. (pump on/off as needed).

Optima or Deka upwards of 1000 CCA.

What if I were to go with a second Deep Cycle battery for accessories, and only use the Starting battery to start and run the FICHT???? How many CCA? Upwards of 1000 is rather costly for this poor fisherman.

these Ficht motors need all the CCA's they can't get, just go with the biggest one you can afford.
