i had over heating problems with the wifes boat,after new thermostats,thermosensors,pop it valve,water pump,sub tank sensor,main tank sensor,and the boat still overheats,i broke down and took it to the dealer.now with my lower unit off,my mid section off,and also the power head removed the dealer found a mud dauber nest in the return cooling passage of my motor.they told me they had to take a drill and drill it out and that it was as hard as cement.now with 9 hrs labor at 79.00 an hour plus parts all for a BUG.there advice to me- cover your lower unit as you never know what might crawl up in there to cause you problems.this boat a.k.a as sandees lemon has been a nightmare.this must be the year for boat problems for people.man do i miss my glastron.HAPPY BOATING TO ALL.
