Yeah, We went to see the Yacht Club...they had an open house, we saw you run out then back in at idle.
Also there is a lot of seaweed at the end of those ramps. I'd back flush your coolers if your running without strainers.
Good Luck, let us know what you find.

I normally float off the trailer but the docks weren't in yet, so I had to power off. I have strainers but I'm going to go through everything when I get a chance. I just hope I didn't damage the motors running them at idle for a couple minutes

Update:
Rotten impellers (all three). Must have burned off the splines by ingesting silt and little pebbles at the launch. I drained the system and there was a surprising amount of debris. I replaced the impellers and now it seems fine. I'll keep you posted
