Ok, first I thought my locater was acting up so I figured it was that, then my cousin who has the boat at his place told me that he tried to turn the boat over and noting so he put a full charge an determine the battery was shot and that was probably causing the problems with the locater so he pulled it out because it less than two old, runs it into the local Wal-Mart and they test the battery and tells him the battery is fine, no problem!! He is really thrown for a loop because he has been around boats and motors for 15 years and don't know what to make of this problem.
He is going to put a charge on, put it back and drop the boat in on Friday to see what happens.
Any buddy ever came up with this problem or any ideas?? It ran great all last year and I have had it out a couple times and no problems and the only thing I did have done to the boat was a new steering cable installed and that caused me a small problem because the person who did the install, cut into my power cable for my graft killing the power but once we found that, we taped it back up.

Wasn't terrible at a state park beach. Antelope island maybe. I wouldn't recommend it as a beach destination tho. Figured I was there, I'm getting in it.
The water looked and smelled disgusting with hundreds of thousands of birds sh*tting in there. About as gross as the Salton Sea. When I duck hunted there I didn't even want to touch the water.
It's kinda gross with the algae in the summer but I got in it anyway. Wanted to see the increased bouyancy at work. You can kinda tuck yourself into a ball and you'll just float with your head above water. When dry off you look diamond encrusted with the salt.
We went to the flats too. I dipped a tire on the rental car onto it just to say I’ve been there,but it was still pretty soft from winter melt. After seeing some moron in a BMW suv get dragged out of the muck I had no intention of repeating his stupidity.

Any one with ideas would be super to hear them.
Thanks.
