    help me out? Here is my problem. At the dam run i took the boat out about a hour before and ran a 62.4 gps going up river . picked up a mel and a two of his freinds and could not get the boat over 50. I ordered the scan tool for the 496 ho since i can not get my boat in to a shop before the end of the month. no fault codes where thrown. everything appears to e o.k. but i lost 10 mph. all so i pulled the prop off and that black plastic sleeve had a hair line crack . could this be the problem. HELP.

    I don't think he was dragging him from a rope underneath the boat.

    OK on a serious not
    the last time my boat started running bad I changed the plugs
    and it ran like new
    I think its time for me to do that again we ran week at the dam run

    I would replace it but if you didn't notice any vibration that probably not it
