I imagine you are draining it out hose on bottom of the pan. I would get a high volume pump and drain thru dip stick.

i ran the boat long enough to get dirty looks from all the nieghbors(just shy of ten min.)and at different lower rpms. yeah i used the little hose out the bottom and loosend the oil fill cap in hopes that it would floww i little better. after about 4 quarts came out it pretty much stopped flowing and started dripping.put the required 5.5 quarts in and and soon as i did irealized that i still had quite a bit of oil in there . so i drained out 1.5 quarts and the dip reads where it's suposed to. how does the pump thing work?

Couple different styles, some screw on top and you hand pump it. Or this style Oil Change (http://overtons.com/cgi-bin/overtons/order/pdetail.cgi?28966++) or This one (http://overtons.com/cgi-bin/overtons/order/pdetail.cgi?30500++) The more expensive one works great and the other works good.
