Took Boat out this weekend, boat ran flawless, stopped to eat lunch for about a hour and boat would not run. Is this vapor lock? Do I need to put a booster fuel pump and check valve to fix? Boat is equipped with a 5.7L 350 Alpha .

HA....that's funny. Well hopefully you've got it fixed by now, but just in case. When my 20' Outlaw was new, I'd slide my fatass in the drivers seat and just barely clip the ejection lanyard and it wouldn't start. After several embarrassing trips and one tow, I learned to listen for fuel pump sound prior to firing it off. No fuel pump, no go. Give it a wiggle and it lites right off. Maybe that's your issue and if it is, don't worry, you're not the only dummy out there.
