Older outboards, if equipped with alternators (generators) at all didn't have a lot of amperage capacity. My opinion is that you wouldn't do all that much good, trying to keep your acc battery charged with your engine's charger. just my opinion.
If you don't have a meter, take a 12 lamp, like an automotive parking lamp and hook it to the battery with the engine running and then turn the engine off while watching it. Any change in brightness or not would be your clue. would work best if dark as there won't be a whole lot of difference. [links]
Welcome to iboats!! I can't answer your first question, but yes the second battery can be used for accesories.
I like to keep my engine and acc batteries separate. Have run my engine batt down before and no fun to start a large OB with a pull rope.
Re: Does my outboard charge my battery? more
You don't have to guess on the alternator. Put a voltmeter on the engine battery with it off and read the voltage. Turn on the engine and run at moderate rpm's. Read the voltage again. If it is the same or slightly less you don't have charge capability. If it is up around 14.5 v you are good to go.

Thanks for your question, Richard. I’ve seen those debates (and others) too. The first year with Summer Dance, I dismounted the outboard for trailering. We have to trailer 30-90 miles, some of it on bumpy county roads, and I didn’t want the extra wear and tear on my transom, motor mount, or motor. But at 90#, it’s a chore to mount/dismount our motor and I have a weak lower back. Starting the second year, I left the motor mounted. I had 1/4″ thick aluminum angle brackets as backup plates inside the transom already, but I also take the leverage off of the motor mount with two small ratchet straps. They hook onto the outboard and lead forward at angles to each side of the cockpit. With that setup, all of the motor weight is directly downward on the transom. I haven’t seen any negative affects of this setup other than reducing the tongue weight of the trailer accordingly. It saves time and back pain. more
If your outboard motor doesn’t have generator coils installed already and you would rather consider a solar panel solution, check out Solar panels for boats: an easy installation guide.
