Dear Potter Folk,

After winter storage (wrapped in a big blue tarp and stored snuggly
behind the garage) we find our depth sounder which performed flawlessly for
the past two seasons (It's a Presidential model that came optional from IM.
We're the second owner.) doesn't work. Nor does our anchor light.
Preliminary checks show all fuses good and that we have a fully charged
battery and bow/stern running lights working.
Does anyone know if the depth sounder and anchor light are somehow
wired together? Any suggestions? We sail on a man made lake that used as a
source for electrical power generation. The anchor light working is a
matter of high priority. Additionally as summer progresses and the water
level drops, our depth gage becomes increasingly important.
