was out fishing this evening.No one around.We were drifting for several hours.Go to start the engine up after dark to go home.Starter just clicks. Great now what do we do.Wait i wisely spent 1700 for a new 9.9 kicker.Drop her into the water.fired her up and away we went.Not fast but atleast it got us back to the dock.So for u guys out there thinking about buying a kicker. In my opinion it just paid for it's self tonight

If you had been in the ocean it would be worth even more. Sounds like you may have a battery or alternator problem that you can repair at your leasure.

A kicker is nice. Two batteries are nice also!
