Default Boat out of storage, now the trim wont work!

Just got my boat out yesterday, and tried to the trim switch.... down goes very very very slow, and up wont work at all. The "trailer" switch will bring it up, very very slowly, but only to a certain point then it stops. When i click the up button there is no clicking, but is clicking on the down and the trailer buttons. Also, I noticed that the cooling fluid was empty, but it as full when i put it in storage, it is normal for it to evaporate over the winter??

Check your batteries, make sure they are charged. Next make sure you do not have a loose or corroded connection. Make sure the connections are TOTALLY clean.

I would start with removing, cleaning & re-attacing all connections. To answer your second question, No, the coolant should not have evaporated! You have a leak somewhere!
