I just a week ago bought a 1991 Sea Ray 185 that was in excellent condition. The owner was kind enough to take us out briefly on it, and the boat worked perfectly. However, when we took it out by ourselves, we had an issue. After getting it undocked and on the water, the audible alarm went off. Everything seemed ok, but the alarm would go off. I turned the engine off and restarted it, *but the alarm would go off again. I'm hoping the problem was that I did not trim the motor up and then back down before getting going. The manual alludes to something like this. Thoughts? Thanks in advance. Run the bilge fan before starting? *Never heard of the outdrive position being tied to the alarm but just might be I don;t know about it. *You should not run the engine above idle with the drive trimmed up.- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - Yep, ran the bilge fan. |
