So I am getting ready to add a battery and the Blue Sea add a battery kit to separate my cranking battery and new house battery. My question is about fuses. I ordered a 100 amp fuse for both circuits. I have a Yamaha 195s with a single SVHO. Does anyone know how many amps it draws to start? I dont want to put a 100 amp fuse on it if it is going to blow when I start the engine.

Thanks in advance,
 
You won't I use 100 amp resetable circuit breakers between battery and engine and they don't trip.
