A Few Important Reminders

Keep Your Batteries Charged

During the first few weeks of the season, make sure you are running your boat regularly and keeping your batteries fully charged.

Any time you leave the boat, turn your battery switch off to help prevent battery drain while the boat is not in use.

Boat Not Starting? Check These First

Before calling for service, here are a few common things to check:

  • Make sure the trim is fully down
  • Confirm the safety lanyard is plugged in
  • Verify the throttle is in neutral
  • Check battery voltage levels

These may seem simple, however, they are often the reason a boat will not start after sitting for a short period.

Still Having Trouble?

If you have checked these items and are still experiencing issues, give the service team at Seattle Boat Company a call. We are happy to help get you back on the water as quickly as possible.

Thank you again for trusting our team with your spring service, and we hope you have an incredible boating season ahead.
