Not to split hairs but water weighs 8.33 ppg and gasoline varies something like 5.9 - 6.5 ppg. Oil in general is less dense than water, thats why we get oil slicks.
The battery weight I just pulled off of pepboys or something like that. Those were just $110 batteries, I can;t remember if the super duper optimax type AGM batteries are lighter than lead acid.
Anyone know how much they cost? I know the little torqueedo they had for kayaks was about $1500 so I would take a WAG and say a 40 HP would be in the $8k range
