The system monitor alarm at the helm can decide to go audible for no reason at all. I've had mine go off just by working on wires under the helm near it. It's also gone off on occasion when using the vhf mic which is right next to it. Sometimes it scrambles the two line display. Cycling power to it always gets it back to a known working state. I think its firmware may not be the most robust software in the world (just a theory).Got a call from my neighbor today while I was at work telling me that a loud alarm was going off on my 2006 44. I checked the security camera, and sure enough a very loud, almost like a commercial smoke alarm or burglar alarm was going off. My neighbor went down to the boat and checked everything and nothing looked amiss. I had him turn off the battery switches and then back on, and the alarm quit and has not come back on. Any ideas what this alarm was and what triggered it? I am completely baffled!
