The official "What did you do to your jet boat today" thread.

Had an overtemp alarm go off so working on clearing that out. Flush hose may not have had enough flow. The engine only ran for about 30 seconds thankfully.

It only ran for 30 seconds on the hose and you got an overheat alarm?

I had the boat on a brackish "lake" for about an hour and flushed when I got home. The engine was still warm. My hose water flow may not have been high enough.

That still seems very fast to get an overheat warning even without any water.. did the other engine not get an overheat alarm when you flushed it? Were you getting water out of the pilot outlet?

No issues with the opposite engine. Water was coming out of the pisser on the STBD side. The only thing I can think of is I hooked up one of those siphon devices that lets the hose draw in anti-corrosive treatment liquid and it slowed the flow way down. But it was not set up like that for very long. Will fully disconnect the batteries tonight and see what happens.
