I put my boat in the water for the first time this year. The power trim worked fine when I initially put the boat in the water. After running it for approximately 30 minutes; the power trim on the controls quit working for no apparent reason. Completely dead. The power trim at the motor was dead as well. I ran the boat for approximately 1 hour after the trim quit working and the motor shut down completely while traveling at about 3000 RPMs. No click, nothing. I troubleshot it to the 20 AMP fuse for the power trim / master switch. Replaced the fuse and it started right up and the power trim worked. I ran the motor for approximately 30 more minutes getting back to the boat ramp. What would make this fuse blow? Could I have damaged anything else before this fuse blew?
