OEM Battery VS Aftermarket?

Yellow top is definitely a good choice. When looking for a deep cycle battery, be sure to go with an AGM model over a Gel-cell.
AGM's are designed to accomodate rapid discharge, and re-charge, and If I'm not mistaken, you need a special regulator to charge a gel-cell.

I replaced the factory battery with a bosch battery that has more cranking amps/longer warranty for less money.
