I have a 2017 Nitro Z18 bought in the spring of 2017 from Bass Pro in Gurnee IL. Last weekend I was dead in the water due to a dead crank battery. Lukily I was able to troll up to some kind boaters who towed me back to the docks.
Long story short, I have a two bank battery charger that only charges the trolling batteries bridged for 24volts.
I've charged the crank battery in spring and verified it was full. After I got off the water I went to O'Reilly's to have them test the battery and they found it dead. The crank battery wouldn't even read a status after sitting on their charge/test station for close to 45 minutes.
I bought a new battery and all was well. Today I checked the battery and it's completely drained/dead again. I make sure to power off everything on the boat and I verified that the main power switch on the console is off.
Has anyone seen this problem before? This is frustrating since the crank battery is brand new. At this point I'm pretty sure it's something that is draining the crank battery.
