Hey Tom S

Thank you very much on this matter as well as others but i printed up what you said and am going to look into it all and see what happens,i will go by your check list and keep you posted and if i need new batteries i need them,i believe they are oringal from previous owner when he bought boat so and he got it in end of 2005 into 2006 so i think i might need new ones and they are interstate batteries so i have a buddy that works in there warehouse so no problem get them at cost not mark up price!!!

My Raymarine C70 would come on when I started an engine and it would shut off sometimes too. Once it ran my battery dead. I talked to a friendly RayMarine engineer who told me that new software was coming out in three months and to always turn my battery switch to OFF as I left the boat. I shut it off and sure nuff in three months they issued new software that stopped the problem. He told me it was part of the "E" series software that they incorporated into the "C" series.

Just wondering if you may have a software issue? ................Pete
