This has happened twice.
Motor starts and runs fine for up to a couple of hours at various speeds. The first event was headed back and running pretty close to full throttle. Motor powers down to idle but did not stall and stayed running.No alarms or lights noted. Limped back 1/8 mile to dock.
Last event, motor started and ran like a champ for almost 2 hours, figured bugs were gone.
Headed back again at full or almost full throttle and motor powered down, no lights or alarms. This time the motor stalled and would not immediately restart. The engine did restart after roughly 5 minutes. I limped home again at idle as was scared to power-up.
The motor runs so well until the event. I am dumbfounded. The motor has been fully serviced over it's life and has a less than 350 hours total.
What do you think?
Thanks to all for any input.
