considered thoughts to the readers of rec.boats:
I'm 18, just bought my first boat, a used boat. I'm having some
electrical problems.
Namely, It is picky about when it wants to start or not.
What does that mean? Does it turn over or refuse to fire?
Also, I ran it in my driveway, and I noticed that the battery
terminals were hot enough to burn.
It isn't clear if this happened during starting or while running.
I quickly shut it down, used pliers to disconnect the terminals, and,
am looking for some input and ideas on what might cause this.
Cranking too long, problem with the starter and/or starter circuit.
Other issues with the battery and/or charging circuit. We'll need more
information......
