"Went out Mon. morning. Starte
"Went out Mon. morning. Started boat, and a couple minutes later, i could smell a rubber burning smell. Could see some smoke coming out of engine box. Shut it down a tried again. Same thing. All gauges looked good but i did notice the water temp. gauge climbing a little faster than normal. Right away i'm thinking waterpump in outdrive.(bay waterwas only 50 degrees) So i dropped the lower unit and checked the waterpump. Everything looked fine to me. Only other thing i thought of was the engine coupler. Nothing looked burnt or rubbed through insde the engine box. But it was a smell like a car tire burning. Any thoughts on what it could be?"
