You may have had cavitation on one engine which would produce this warning....meaning one engine gained RPMs for an unexplained reason. IMO I wouldn't be concerned unless it occurs again....
IMO I would Disconnect the junction box connection in the engine room. Then spool the cable out flat. Based on the age, you may be well advised to replaced the entire cable because with 240 Volts, ANY abrasions inside the cable bundle is a very real fire hazard especially if this problem has...
Great LakeS Skipper had a new platform available at dealer cost about 3 weeks ago on their site. Believe it was for a 44 DA. Probably is the same for a 44DB
