Great day out there and a perfect way to kick off work early on a Friday for a solo. Fish were caught around 2 and 3PM on the flood. No luck with the spoons but the white glow hootchie near bottom was clearly the ticket. Starting a little vlog which I will post every now and then (more for the excuse to buy some cool camera tech). Hope you enjoy!

Anyone get out today ? I tried , launched the boat and couldn’t get it to start. Didn’t even try . Booster pack , swapped batteries so seemed like an ignition issue. Tried in the driveway when I got home and of course she fired first try

Starter or starter solenoid?

Not sure as started 5 times in a row in the driveway . Wish I didn’t start so I could track it down. No clue , rather frustrating

Any chance it was in gear when you tried to turn it over

Negative . Was in neutral .
I’m gonna replace the battery regardless as it’s going on 6 years old now . Don’t think it’s related as it trimmed up and down no problem . Just wouldn’t even attempt
To start just beeped at me .
