So I was coming in fast to avoid a storm on our new boat and the Port side engine shut off. I'm confident that it is the kill switch on the clean out deck as the they screwed up at the factory and didn't install a long enough latch to catch the lock on the deck. I've been running it the meantime anyhow and it hasn't been a problem but I was going WOT's and hitting waves this time which lifted the lid just enough to kill one of the engines...I've already scheduled it to go in for service but they were way backed up and the boating season in Ohio is pretty short so we have been running it without issues until today. My question is when the Port engine shut down we were going 45 mph and it took me about 20 seconds to figure out what happened....did I water log the the stopped engine? I stopped once I figured it out and started the port and it fired right back up....I did about 30mph back to the dock which was only a couple of minutes away...I idled into the slip which took another ten minutes or so and everything seemed ok...no error codes or anything. What, if anything should I check out before I get back on the water tomorrow. Thanks in advance for any advice...
