    With all due respect

    You are going to have to replace batteries or you are going to pay someone to replace batteries. Praying will not change that.

    Battery warning

    Were the motors running when you ran the thruster?

    Battery warning

    The battery was not "being so low" as 11.5V The voltage at the MFD did for some instant during the time the thruster was running. That triggered an alarm on the mfd. Assuming standard Grady setup, the Stbd starting batteries are also running house. There has been no problem starting or...

    Battery warning

    They don’t “make “ power. They have a regulated power supply. They can run with a wide range of input power. They still have an alarm to warn you that input power is below expected. it is possible that the battery is weak but it is also possible that the thruster is fed with the same wire...

    Adding raw water washdown

    I agree with Hookup. Unless you have some superduper pump nobody else has... "14g"...GPM? Thats crazy. Most are 3.5gpm or 4gpm Shurflo or Pentair. Many Gradys have prewired 12 awg Orange/Brown for Washdown to switch panel with 15A breaker.

    Battery warning

    Which screen? Your MFD? Is your thruster using the House batteries or does it have its own dedicated batteries? If your thruster runs on the House then it would not be unusual to get a low volt alarm on an MFD when using the thruster. Garmin can adjust the alarm cutout down to 11v to get...

    Nuts Bolts Staples snaps

    yes T50 MONEL staples from Arrow. They will not bleed a rust stain like Stainless Steel. Treat them like gold. Don't let your wife & kids use them for projects.

    Twin motors not staring start

    I have no experience with 94 carbeurated Yammies and their cabling. The run down Both don't start. Both crank and tilt. Both smell gas. Appears neither has spark. Two keys or one? Kill switch "disabled". I'm thinking the ON switch is not ON (if its one key....) or the Kill is killing. Head...

    Grady 275 Freedom rolling issue

    Oh, I forget the new tabs have LEDs. That makes it a little better. At least you are not completely lost. Mine don't have indicators. I pulled the fuse and never use tabs and don't miss them one bit.

    Grady 275 Freedom rolling issue

    Put the tabs up so they don't do anything. Ride around a whole day without touching them. Use motor trim to get out of the hole. You may find you don't need tabs. If you list because everyone is on one side of the boat, tell them to move. Having motors too deep (trimmed down) will cause a list...

    Fuel Tank Issue

    but again, he has two pickups per tank. Both would have to fail. Obviously at some point soon the fuel line has to come off to figure this out. Sounds like the OP just filled both tanks (he mentioned fuel coming out of vent in the fill). Just be carefull because you won't have a shutoff valve...

    One year later and things do not seem right

    if bow is up and it drains, it is not "flat". You have to match the keel angle for the measurement.

    Twin motors not staring start

    you say "no spark present". Is that an assumption or you checked spark on both engines? There is fuel in the motor filters? Try starting fluid? Carbs could be dry.
