[Rhodes22-list] Keeping outboard up well above water line

[The Rhodes 22 Email List]

Loose battery connections can easily burn out a lift motor as well as other 
 devices on board. If your battery(s) came equipped with wing nuts, throw 
them  away and get some stainless nuts with lock washers. I've discovered 
over the  years that the wing nuts don't stay tightened.

It was  the batteries. And the strap was loose. And the contacts were a  bit
corroded. And the electric winch may need replacement. Aah a lesson  in
battery maintenance and related conveyances.
