    starboard electrical problem

    starboard electrical problem

    Sounds like impeller problems. There must be an over temp sensor that caused a shutdown. After engine sits for a while try a short crank if it turns over you have a good idea what the problem may be.

    A Couple of New Customizations on Daydream This Weekend!

    Nice mods. One thing I did that worked well for me is a couple of holes in the rear corners for drains, if your cleaning fish this is a must, tilting the table a few degrees aft is also a good idea to avoid wearing any fish cleanings. Also I had good luck with a couple of kuuma barbq mounts...
