A mate of mine has some old twin 50hp Mercs on the back of his boat, pull-start but still going strong. We got talking about the possibility of converting it to electric start, can anyone offer some tips on a) whether this can be done and b) what parts we would be looking at, thanks guys.

SMB,

just go to the local wreckers and ask them...outboard wreckers that is.

A basic list would be starter motor and associated brackets
Battery leads
Starter solenoid
Wiring from starter solenoid to a start switch/button

cheers
