I recently bought a used boat, (1988 Sea Ray Seville) and all of a sudden yesterday as I travel forward the motor pops out of gear whenever the boat goes above 2500 RPMs. It's like all of a sudden it's in neutral. The motor runs great and travels ok until we start to pass the 2500 RPM mark and then "BAM" the motor revs up like it's in neutral or something. I'm new to the boating world and I've owned the boat for less than 2 weeks. Any suggestion on what the problem might be and a cost estimate would be very helpful. Thanks in advance!
