Oh thanks for putting me straight, Floydrasor! I did think it was the BA.

You do not need a BSC for an electric outboard - but thats not what the original question was about. Its the electric start that could be the issue!

If it is the case that a leccy outboard is exempt but a petrol one isn't then it's wholly laughable.

If an electric outboard has fixed wiring and a fixed battery then it would need one.

I think that if the outboard has its own combined tank and electrics then it is a standalone unit and exempt ( aka Seagull etc) but when the electrics and fuel systems are separate from the engine and are within the boats hull itself then those systems become part of the boat and a bss is required.
