I have a manual on order, just thought I'd throw this out there. The motor starts and runs just fine. Put it in the lake and in gear and it goes fine, until you try to throttle up, Then it just kinda flattens out. In saying that I mean it doesnt speed up, thr rpm's dont seem to go up, its just like it flattens out. This is th first boat I've played with, were it a dirtbike I'd be thinking high speed jets and rebuild the carb. Any other thoughts out there?

So you can continually advance the throttle yet the RPMS nor the Speed increases?
