I have a 86 bayliner capri with a chevy 305 and a volvo penta 275 outdrive. Boat was running very well today for the 1st 20-25 minutes we were just cruising around the lake going all different speeds engine was responding well. we all wanted to get off and swim so we stoped in a cove and swam for a little while. About 45 mins or so. Got back in fired it up went to put it into drive and died. Started it again put it in gear died. Did that about 4-5 times. After about the 5th time it didnt want to even start. Long story short got towed back to the dock loaded the boat up drove home about an hour drive put the muffs on it and bam fired up and went into gear no problem. I have been trying to figure out this problem now for months and its getting nothing but worse. Used to be able to drive the boat about 45 minutes then it would die. Wouldnt start but let it sit 30 mins or so then crank it back up and she would give you a good hour then die agian. I am so lost as to what it is and like I said im getting very very VERY tired of it. Anyone have any thoughts?
Thanks
