And you wonder why it has had problems…..
Atleast it wasn't bubble wrapped with clear packing tape and wedged between 2 pieces of aluminum.
We had a customer come in that had all kinds of electronics trouble on his pretty n ew seaark boat.They had a glass fuse box with no cover stuffed in the front access panel with bubble wrap and packing tape.It was a dealership around nashvile,some just don't care.
Or hire guys that smoke dope on the way to work !!!Atleast it wasn't bubble wrapped with clear packing tape and wedged between 2 pieces of aluminum.
NEW SeaArk... clark marine maybe....Atleast it wasn't bubble wrapped with clear packing tape and wedged between 2 pieces of aluminum.

Close,but it wasn't clark marine.
Well ulterra had to have the lower end replaced. I pick it up tomorrow. 700.00 with parts and labor. Oh well, better than 2500.00 for a new one
Heard a " theory " yesterday…… that charging your batteries with the trolling motor plug in can burn that motherboard???
I don't unplug mine but I will start doing that. Simple enough.
What say you?

Picked it up yestersay. Culprit was 1000 yards of fishing line in the prop. Most of it was heavy line ( i only use 2 and 4 pound test). He replaced the shaft and the lower unit. Lesson learned

I'm no expert, but I thought the newer motors had a built in resistance sensor to shut down current through the armature to prevent damage to the motor itself? Did the line destroy the seal and allow water to get into the foot?
How did you not see the line around the shaft when you pulled it to check the shear pin?
Regardless, pull your prop on your outboard to make sure you didn't wrap it as well. That line can destroy the seals to your lower unit.

I never pulled the prop. I wish i would have.
Installed a plug, got it mounted on puck and will be headed to lake in the morning. Was gonna go friday but it seems no one works on fridays anymore. Praying it works well
