Went to jump in the boat yesterday afternoon (it's 107 here in Portland OR and that is WAY hot for us) everything is working fine hit the starter and nothing I check the tether, battery switch, move the throttle back and forth and make sure it's in neutral still nothing.

Now I pull press all the breakers, look the fuses in the helm box, still nothing, now remove the engine cover start pressing any breakers, look at all the fuses everything looks good but no start.

I pull the controls out take off the neutral switch back probe for power and no power. I have the key on and start wiggling the breaker next to the key and presto we have power. Breaker was not popped and I had pressed it a few times, but it seems that our unusually high temps had make it go open.

Lesson learned, don't give up on the small stuff and start digging until you have totally ruled out each component. Having the boat torn apart then finding out it was that easy makes you look like an ass.

Well...no.... don't be so hard on yourself..... I'd say it makes you look pretty smart! Calling the marina, having the boat pulled and into the shop for a week...and finding it was just this....... _that_ would be sad and have names attached to it.....
