Over the 4th I noticed my dashboard clock was kapuut. I couldn't adjust it at all and it was dead in the water (badoom, shhh). Later, as I was preparing to dock, I scanned my gauges and noticed my volt meter was dead (unknown if related). I tie her up and pop the engine cover, making sure my belt is still turning the alternator, everthing looks good. I get underneath the dash and push in all the breakers, but I really coudln't tell if anything had been popped. I start her back up, the volt meter jumps back up to 13, where it normally runs and then the clock goes nuts. It starts turning forward like we are in Back To The Future and won't stop. I don't feel myself getting older, so I assume I haven't driven the boat into a wormhole or breached the time-space continueum. It bugged me so much I shut the engine down and re-boot and the clock works fine. Anyone ever seen this?
