As to why I’m thinking rebuild, over the winter the starter shorted out and the engine started up. Not sure how long it ran but the problem was that the thru hull was closed so the engine overheated. Talked to Brian who told me to do a pressure test which I did and it’s not holding pressure. Haven’t had the chance to get back to the boat to do more investigating. One good thing is that the engine didn’t seize. Will get back to the boat in a couple weeks and see what to do next.
