I have created a micro pond

This started last summer as an experiment with clippings that were going to the trash. One year later, it has grown into a fully functional pond with zero input from me other than adding water.

Ludwigia Repens, Dwarf Sags, Hornwort, Water Wisteria, Monte Carlo, a bunch of little snails, 4 male guppies to eat the mosquito larvae.

No light, heater, filter, no fertilizer, no algae.

The dreaded Ultrex pedal freezing up issue

I experienced the intermittent freezing up pedal yesterday. It happened 3-4 times and was fine the rest of the day. I was able to get it working again by cycled the on/off switch, one time. Other times it took pulling up the TM into halfway stowed position then lowered, tapping the go button while tried turning the pedal. Through research, it seems a bad steering sensor board is a common problem.

My buddy had the exact same symptoms with his Ultrex initially. He took it to an ASC and they replaced the steering sensor board at first then the control board (twice) then the brushes in the lower unit.

What else have you guys seen as the cause of this problem? I got a week long trip coming up and I want to be sure this is fixed. I don't want to totally rebuilt it either like my buddy did. lol

Does the bumper boats phenomenon exist anywhere outside of Lake St.Clair?

It’s an enormous lake but they seemed to always be bunched up in a certain area. All lined up like some sort of choreographed halftime performance. lol
