I just took delivery of a 2018 Chaparral 2430 Vortex VRX. We launched the boat, started both engines and everything worked great. The next morning after realizing that the battery switch was left on, one battery was dead. After boosting the battery with jumper cables attached to the good battery, the boat started and ran well. Next morning I went and bought a new battery as the charge did not seem to hold over night. I installed a new battery and the first start attempt failed. The boat fired on the second start, I then turned the boat off. After an hour my friends arrived and we boarded the boat and the one problem engine would not fire. It just cranked and the new battery was holding the charge. The good motor also got a eReverse module error and after reviewing some posts, I was able to clear that error but only one motor will turn over. I live in Coral Gables, FL if anyone knows of a mobile mechanic.
