So I noticed today on my gauges that my voltage dropped to around 11. When I would trim it would drop to 9 and at one point cause the boat to loose power. I made it to a Marina got fuel and started to leave. Boat went into gear but shortly after died. All instrument displays went out too. Checked the batteries and noticed they were dated 2016. I changed one of the batteries out and it started. I let it idle for a few minutes and then the instrument displays go out followed by the boat shutting off. I made sure I had the new battery selected on the switch. A short time later the displays would come on but but would not start, not even turn over. Any suggestions on what to look at next. Oh I forgot to add. When it was idling on the new battery, the volts would fluctuate between 12-13.4 volts.
