Hey guys,
We were on the lake the other day for our wakeboard club with about 8 kids in my boat and 2 adults (Switch V, 340 hp). For the first 2 hours the boat ran fine. I was coaching so another guy was doing the driving, he ran the boat much harder than I ever do (such as power turns, quick starts etc.). I insisted on driving after our break due to water over the bow a few times from the other driver. After pulling a kid or two the motor sounded like it was starting to cut out at 22 mph. The rpm's seemed to stay constent though. I brought the kids back to shore and took the boat out by myself and it ran great even up to 35 mph.
Any ideas? I haven't checked the water/fuel seperator yet, but why would the boat run fine with less weight in it?
Thanks.
