I just put all new batteries in my boat this spring (two for the 24v trolling motor and one for the starter). I've got an on-board charger that juices them up after each use. When I plug it in, it charges them up fine (as indicated by the indicator lights saying that all three batteries are fully charged), but after I unplug the charger, 24 hours later it reads that all three batteries have a half charge. I've double checked to be sure that nothing it turned on in the boat to drain battery. Do I likely have a bad battery? Is my charger likely reading goofy? What's 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.
