My boat's still not right. Idles fine, temp good but then tried to get on plane and it was like it was slipping and then I watched my temp gauge go from 100C to 160C in about 10 seconds. I shut her down, then got back to the launch under "no-wake" speed. Found about 18 inches of fishing line around my prop later in the day after it was on the trailer, but I definitely think an impeller job is in my fall's future.
Luckily Jim was kind enough to give me a ride so the morning wasn't a total bust! Thank you again kind sir!
I had to get back to the launch by noon so missed the races, but we had a great time toolin' around and great conversation before Jason ran me back to the ramp.
