"Went fishing today for about

"Went fishing today for about 5 hrs, lots of moving around, start and stopping motor on and off lots of times. Ran great all morn. then on the way in it started losing power the rpms kept dropping until the boat would'nt plane out. So i backed off and babied it in. Idled at dock about 0.6 rpms when put in gear it would die but idled fine. seems to be running a little rough but all cylinders i think are fireing. Had out drive leak maybe, not sure but does not seem to be leaking now could this be part of problem?"
 
"check fuel system, run motor

"check fuel system, run motor from a remote tank, seperate fuel line, everything, if motor runs the same at least fuel has been eliminated, also a new set of plugs is cheap and easy to swap."
 
"Thanks for info, was water in

"Thanks for info, was water in tank, water seperator was half full and was going over to motor filter. Where boat was sitting was really hot in day 105 degrees and cold at night. think it was condensation."
