"while running at full throttl

"while running at full throttle, for about 1/2 mile, then slowed to a low idle, for about 1/4 mile, I stopped the motor when I saw smoke coming from the cowling. I smelled a smell of burning wire, something electrical. The motor would not start after that. Do you have any idea what it might be? Its a Tohatsu, 25, remote power trim and tilt, 4 stroke.

Thanks,"
 
You need to determine if you h

You need to determine if you had an electrical short that burned a wire or if your cooling system failed and you ran your engine until it fried.
