I was on the water boat running fine, when all of sudden she died on me. Batteries are OK but no Juice flowing. th horn, lights ect will not work. I cleaned all the connections and I could not fine any bad fuses. I am thinking maybe starter or short some were . Any suggestions???

Re: lost all power

My only guess is, If this is an Inboard or I/O, you might search for a circut breaker somewhere on the engine... "Usually" a little red button with a number (the rated amperage of the breaker) stamped right on the button...

Re: lost all power

Rockwell, when you say, "the battery is ok" how <br />do you determine this? A voltmeter is unable to <br />tell much at all. The test would be whether a 12 device like a 12 volt light would draw some current and be bright. It may be that you simply lost charging and the batteries died or discharged completely. I'm hoping by now that you've found out why and will let us know what occurred... If not, charge up the batteries using a good charger and then see where that leads you. Jim Reed
