Happy Fall - NOT! Any of you guys ever have an issue with your SmartCraft and gauges powering off and then on again while running ? I have this intermittent problem, usually only once per outing. Will be up running at 3250 rpms or so and the SmartCraft and gauges will just power off and then back on again. Motors keep going as it is that quick. Talked to several mechanics / other boat owners - etc and was advised to check grounds on both engines and under helm. Removed grounds on back of motors and cleaned (although looked clean already) and re attached. Also, checked grounds and power under helm and found everything tight. I also get a lost communication on my RayMarine E80 from time to time, don't know if related or not. Used to be that the port engine and its guages only would do this and actually shut down momentarily. Now motors seem to continue to run, but SmartCraft and gauges all power down and then come right back on. SmartCraft doesn't reboot, comes back up on screen it was on. Any ideas ??? Thanks
