It doesn't make any difference if it's a marine cranking, marine dual-purpose hybrid deep cycle, medium golf-cart type deep cycle, or true deep cycle. They can all work fine for cranking batteries. Only thing to be careful of is when using true deep cycle batteries for cranking. They have to be derated down to 80%. Easy rule-of-thumb for a FLA (flooded lead acid battery) is, if your normal cranking battery weighs 60 lbs., then figure a true deep cycle needs to be around 75 lbs.

Exide, Rolls-Surrette, Trojan, Deka-Power Battery, etc.
Chances are, you never even going to come across at true deep-cycle battery. Many that are sold as "deep cycle" are actually hybrids.
