Default Boat battery & charger ??

I’ve got a 16’ lund tinner that I’m hoping to upgrade the outboard on this summer. Provided I go with an electric start, would one battery be enough to run the outboard, a 45# trolling motor and a Helix5/7? I’d prefer not to weight down the boat with multiple batteries but if needed that is an option. Would it be worth trying for one season and then reevaluating? I’ve been looking at a Minnkota charger as well and was planning on getting a 1 bank charger but now am contemplating a 2 bank just in case. I prefer to keep things simple so there’s the possibility I’ll get an outboard with a manual start as well. Those light weight lithium batteries aren’t an option for me either.
