Can you guys give me your opinion on why today I went to use the windlass and the starboard engine would die? As we were getting ready to leave the dock, I had to use the emergency switch to start the stbd. motor. That was a first and i thought strange. Than, at the cove, went to anchor and blammo! No power on that side! I have a feeling it may just be a bad battery, but the charger is always on and I just checked the water levels a couple of weeks ago. The voltage when the engine is running is 14+volts and the engine runs fine. The engine stalling has me perplexed. Let me know what you think. Not sure how old the batteries are, so I think I may need to open my wallet soon...
