  Good news. :-) Its just a leaky gas cap. You might want to just
verify that your gas cap is on properly, then reset the code. (You
can either reset it with the reader, or disconnect your negative
battery cable for a few minutes.) If it comes back, you might need
a new gas cap. Definitely nothing to worry about though - have fun
on your boating trip! :-)
