    While you've bot the boat at home try rope starting. I've been able to rope start my 150. You may be surprized and it may help out if you have a low battery or starter issues. Important thing is to practice in your driveway so you know what it takes.

    Had the stater go out in my boat this year that led to a drained battery. Luckily I had a pair of jumper cables in the boat and was able to cross jump off my trolling battery.

    I had a friend of mine and he had a 150 johnson and we were fishing on Hardy Dam in Michigan when his battery went low. Like I said.... "I had a friend".. it killed him and I figured if it killed him it would kill me too! LOL hahaha.. No, for real we could NOT get that thing started at ALL.. it wouldn't even cough. Thank God we ended up getting a jump. Bill, gotta hand it to you.. you have bigger go-nads than I.
