Ok update. I had time to look at it today and it was very simple. The battery was dead! So I put a new one in and as I am cleaning up I see the red light on the dash lit under one of the bilage pump switches. I raise the hatch and sure enough the staboard pump is running. I take a pole and tap the pump thinking it is stuck and still nothing. Then I notice that the hose used to drain the block is caught under the float switch.It must of ran and killed the battery. So I remove hose and the light shuts off. I guess last time out it got stuck under there. The pumps work off battery even when the battery switches are off. So now the puzzle is solved. Thanks

Darn that would be fun to do. I wish my schedule wasn't so hectic at the moment. I would be all about plunking down some coin for fuel. Maybe next year.
Our weather this weekend is mostly sunny and highs in the low 60's so this might be our last weekend of boating until next April. I guess that means I am going to have to figure out my electrical issue.

I fixed my electrical issue yesterday. I opened up the dash and removed each panel light and then I isolated one by one until I threw a fuse. Evidently the panel light on the starboard voltage meter was tuching something it sholdn't have because after jiggling it a bit and plugging it back in everything worked fine. I now have panel lights, I am so excited.
Unfortunately, though I fixed the electrical issue, I had a new problem arise http://www.offshoreonly.com/forums/s...d.php?t=172111
I guess I won't be winterizing until I figure that one out.
