Hey Guys -
I am a 2005 40HP merc and I went out today... and the boat would not shut off... The RPM's wen up to 6000k and the kill switch would not shut it off and the key would not shut it off... it stayed up to 6000k rpms... until i pulled the gas line..
what would cause a motor to do...
I have a 2005 13 Foot Boston Whaler with a 40 hp Merc.
I had three people on my boat and it would not go past 3,000 RPMS - the boat was very slow.
I took the two people off and the boat would go a lot faster and hit 4500 RPMS.
I did not have this problem last year... What do you think it...

I am looking to buy a new boat... I am looking at the 276 and the 290.
Do not like how the 280 looks for some reason..
What other boats should I be looking at?
