I noticed my volt meter is reading 16 to 18 volts this week. I believe it used to read about 14 volts last year. My motor is a Yamaha 90
4-stroke. Battery is good with clean connections.

Get a portable voltmeter and read across the battery with motor running.
Even 15 volts will boil a battery dry if the hydrogen doesn't explode first.
Tap the gauge. Anything much over 14.4 volts is a problem.
Hi volts will be an alternator regulator problem. Get it fixed now.

History was made today. Shortbus and I agree.
A fully charged battery will read 12.6 volts (2.1volts per cell).
