Hi,
It all started out on Saturday. We took the boat out, a Cabrio 2006 Larson. The batteries were low, but I still used the 2 refridgerators. I went maybe about half a mile to an island and hung out for the day. When I was getting ready to go, the battery was too low to start the engine, click click. I had to get a jump. Started right up. I decided to let it idle to charge the batteries. It idled for 2 hours, then just died, like it was turned off. I tried starting, but it would not, it was turning over fine. The batteries had charged fully. I notice my temp guage and oil pressure guage was pegged. I figured, maybe over heated??? I waited anouther half hour and tried, but no luck. Packed everything up, tried again and it started. I was on my way. ABout half way to the dock, as I was watching my guages (temp was about 165 and Oil pressure at about 40 psi) it just died again, like it was shut off. I then was towed home. I could not start it at home either.
Electrical problem???
Thanks,
Garry
