Upon returning from a fishing trip and powering on the trailer this weekend, my engine shut off 3 or 4 times while I was powering on to the trailer. After shut off the engine made several clicking noises. After I got the boat home, there was not water coming from the pee port when using the muffs, but water did come out when the hose was connected to the hose flushing port.
I had just finished putting about 50 miles on it with no problems over two days. I hope it just a happy coincidence it failed when I got it on the trailer and not 20 miles out in the marsh.

Engine is a 2004 Yamaha F115TXRC.

Is this a failed water pump/impeller?
 
Yams don't like flushing muffs most of the time, will overheat and not show a piss stream. The flushing attachment works because you are putting pressure in the system and it fills the block and pisses. The problem with it dying going on the trailer indicates that the engine is not running up to snuff. Compression. Spark. Fuel Quality. The worry about the cooling system. Try it in the water and see what results you get.
