While trying to plane my boat, Bayliner with a 3.1 Liter motor, I encounter sand and mud. The motor sucked in the sand and mud and bogged down. I was able to drive the boat away from the area and continue. We had the boat winterized and stored outside for two winters as we did not use the boat last year. This year we attempted to use the boat but when we started the motor up, the water pump did not discharge water out of the proper two locations on the back of the motor, at first. After approximately 20 seconds, water did discharge out of one side but not both sides. Then water entered the engine compartment in the boat. The motor was stopped and the boat taken in for repairs. Now we have a cracked block on the engine and it does not run right. How can I prevent this from happening again? The boat repair man, states that the motor does not have a large water pump to flush the motor out. Please comment! thank you!
