What went wrong?
Was out surfing last night and noticed a red mastercraft that was at a beach that we don't usually see people at. After 45 minutes or so we realized that they were pulling it along shore. Decided to stop over and try to help out. Batteries were good and the gas tank was full but the boat wouldn't crank. Solenoid didn't click. I jumped the neutral safety switch and the tether switch to no effect. Didn't have many tools to really try and fix it so ended up just towing them home (of course.... they were 7 miles from their Marina.) It was a nice boat and seemed to have been well maintained. Had a new starter and she said they always had it professionally winterized/summerized.
What else could it have been?
(And I know how annoying this will be that we'll probably never learn what the real problem was.)
