Problems at full throttle
I'm having some problems past few weekends when running my Skeeter at full throttle. At full throttle with trip all the way up and even trimmed few clicks down from full throttle, my boat seems to hesitate and does never get to max speed. Just hesitate and hesitate. Any ideas of what could be causing it?

Fuel lines would be my guess, had the same problem on my old boat, ethanol had eatn the rubber lining out of the line, and the lil peices where clogging it. Did the same thing yours is doing.

Check the water/fuel seperator.

what happens when the prop slips? it runs great 3/4 throttle and down. but as soon as i run full throttle is when it starts missing

When the hub slips, Rpms go way up and Speed way down, With only 13hrs on it id bring it back to the dealer. http://www.bassboatcentral.com/smileys/thumbsup2.gif

What kinda oil do you use ? did you run double oil during break in ? If you have not changed the plugs yet i would start there.Hammers are very sensitive about having oil\carbon on them, and alot of times the plugs need changing after break in. Dealer most likely will not change the for free so check that out yourself first.
