So we bought the boat a year ago and the guy said engine one (Left) had been replaced at some point. And by the time I finally got back to town to test drive it after sitting all winter I driver for 15 minutes. The dopamine rush was amazing. She cruised baby. Then I went around the corner to a cove, and I upped the throttle to full on both engines for under 10 seconds and engine one abruptly shut off. I tried to restart it, and it would only make a tick noise. It wouldn’t spin. So I ended up spending three hours replacing a starter, which I thought it was the problem at the time! But same result. So I took the jet nozzle off on that engine and I could spin the drive shaft. So then I took my camera and looked around the bottom side of the engine with my flash on and saw this …. A GIANT hole in the side of the crank case I some how missed! First off, how does that even happen? And second yes, I know I need a new engine! Please give me your feedback!
