Launched this morning bright and early. Had big plans of wading west bay at sunrise throwing topwaters, would have been a beautiful morning. Boat started fine, idled ok. I backed it off the trailer, tied it off and left it idling and went to park the truck. When I got back to the boat, it was dead! Wouldnt start, wouldnt turn over, wouldnt even bump or click the starter! I messed with it for an hour and watched the sun come up and several other happy boat owners launch and leave the ramp. One nice fellow who was fishing alone offered for me to hop in with him. Very kind of him, I was surprised he offered. I thanked him but refused, I wanted to get it to the shop ASAP.
Finally gave up, checked everything, battery cables, fuses, Perko switch, soloenoids, you name it. Took it in to Acies's. 2-3 weeks before they can even look at it. Jimmy spent about five minutes looking over it in the parking lot and couldnt see anything easy or straight forward either. Guess im boatless for a good while, and probably broke too, hahaha!
I just hope my partner comes through with his boat for the slam tournament. This sucks.
