I been lurking on these forums for some time now and decided its time for me to put up my first post. I see there is a ton of resources and allot of people here that know there stuff. Well he is my issue that I'm having with my boat. I picked up my boat from storage last weekend and took it over to a buddies house to wash it. Well we managed to get the boat started and let it run for about 10 minutes with the muffs on and water running. I turned it off and let it sit for about 5 minutes and started right up again. Well this weekend I was suppose to take the boat out had it all loaded kids ready and wife. Before we left to the lake something told me to hook it up again to the water hose and make sure it starts before I pay all the fees and find out there that it wont start. Well as you might be aware it didnt start for me. The boat cranks over but will not start. I dont know what could change from last weekend. I took it to my friends house and we looked at the carb and its getting gas. It acts like it wants to start but doesnt. I wanted to ask the experts what I should look for. It still has gas from last year as I didnt drain it out but I did put some octane booster in the gas tank. My friend thinks it might be the carb. What else should I be looking for. If it makes any difference its a 1997 Chris Craft. Thanks....
