So it was 75 and sunny for the first time in ocer a month here in Missouri so we got the wet suits out and headed to the lake one last time this year. We got some gas at the marina and got 3 pulls in before we had to stop.....


Boat ran fine for about an hour then when I was pulling up a surfer there was a vibration in the boat. When I gave it power a loud clanking noise was heard. Sounded like something was up with the prop or shaft. Without seeing it sounded like something was loose ar the prop was hitting something as it spun. We limbed back to the dock and waited to get my trailer and when I tried to start the boat it would not start. It cranked and cranked and finally kinda sounded like a lawn mower when it backfires and then quit. I did this a few times to no luck.

I got the boat out of the water and took a look on the bottom and there wasnt anything out of the ordinary below. So I am stumped...

Hypothesis: I know nothing about engines but just a shot in the dark...It kinda seems like I got some bad gas as to why the boat wont start and as far as the clanking noise and vibrations? I have no clue

Good thing is its still under warranty...:-)
