Hello all,
First timer here. We have a trusty cottage boat that I've been trying to do some trouble shooting with. Symptoms are: it starts and runs great with two people on board, but anything more and we can't get it to plane and it sucks power. We've never messed with the trim since it was new - always planed like a dream, so I've rulled out any setup issues. Like I said, it runs strong and reaches top speed with no issues with two adults on board. Three or more and the rpms still climb, but the boat just doesn't seem to want to come out of the water. Wondering if the carbs need a rebuild?
s/n is 7154223. Think it might be a 1986? Original prop.
Any help would be great. Thanks!
