Lets just say the first year the boat was run harder than I should have. I think MAYBE got some air without pulling back on the throttle or I hit something??? We all ways run out as soon as the wind comes up . This boat loves windy days. So i dont blame Mercury at all. **** happens if you dont drive it right. C n T
