I noticed something while out on the water yesterday... My hour meter has this hourglass looking icon on the far left that is blinking. I couldn't find any info in my owner's manual. does anyone know what this icon indicates?

It means you have low muffler bearing oil levels and should check your knifling rod tension....

I noticed mine does that anytime the engine is running, and the hours are ticking away. Pretty rare for me, at least! It doesn't do it (on mine) with the key in run, and the engine NOT running.

Hope that's it.

Yes, that means that hours are accumulating.

Thanks guys. I assumed it was some sort of "hey, look, you are putting hours on your boat" signal - I just hadn't noticed it until Sat afternoon.
