Hello to all.I posted this same thread under astro but no hit's.Took my boat out fishing 2 weeks ago boat started fine,moved around to different fishing holes, atleast 3 times ,each time i stopped the boat started back up.However on the fourth time it did not start not only that there was a strong smell of gas,and it looked as if it was leaking out.Replaced a couple of hoses because i saw they were worn, one actually was off, took boat out again this weekend and the same thing move to a different location a couple of times maybe 3 times using trolling motor to fish go to start back up it would not start and smells of gas and it was leaking out.would not start, after boat had sat while i fished, Is it flooding Is it the carbs,Need help

You need to find where the gas is leaking from.
