After about 20mins of bouncing around in 3' freaking seas on a usually calm lake....I finally hit a smooth patch....O yeah...here we go 35 45 55 65.........nothing.....loss power......!!! Floated around for 2 hours and finally got towed in!!!!! Next day....the main motor power line barely came loose....killing my ride and day!!!! :pissed:
