My wife and i have just purchased our first boat, a 15 1/2 ft fibreglas with a 35 HP Chrysler motor. The model number is 350 HA, but I'm not sure of the year (between '72 and '78). Our problem is that the motor seems to "slip" in forward gear. It starts great, runs well in idle, and well in reverse. When we put it in forward, it makes "clunking" sounds and the boat shakes slightly. This problem is magnified at higher speeds. Any ideas? Thanks! <br /><br />ps. it has nothing to do with ice on the lakes up here in Canada, so nobody get smart
