Greetings, fellow boaters!
I have a question regarding our 1982 Sea Ray V260. Last fall we took it in and had it winterized. De-winterized it this early summer and took it out in late June. The boat did wonderful. Purred like a kitten. Brought it home, covered, turned everything off, etc. Went to go out July 4th weekend and it wouldn't start. Acted like it wasn't getting gas or spark. Took it in to the marina, they changed all the plugs and they said that somehow the spark plugs rusted (????) Also, the batteries (all three of them) were completely drained. We got it fixed and went out a couple days ago, the darn thing broke down AGAIN while we were on the lake. Had to get towed. :smt009 The marina said we burnt up the impeller. Any suggestions as to the spark plug situation being rusty?? To me that says "water". Anyone else had this happen?
