Dave, after about two weeks, I tested my battery out at 12.48 volts. That's about right?

Thanks, Dave. If I recall from another search, however, that should be a disconnected battery? I noticed there are wingnuts on the terminals, so I'm wondering if in the meantime before I have a...

Update: took Boatie Two out for a bit yesterday and got a tiny bit of stuttering in the first few minutes and then it seemed clear (never got above 5200 RPM or so) for the whole day. Hoping we're...

Thanks for the tips, all. I was on Chocorua for the weekend with my Scout group, so I couldn't get on board this weekend, but I've got a new Everstart (freshly charged) and a bottle of Seafoam to...

Thanks for the reassurance—it was so weird because every other year has been perfect.

Thanks, all.
I'll grab a new battery and can of Sea Foam this week and see how it goes.
