According to my 1996 manual, a continuous beep means overheating. If that is the case with your boat, I would assume it is actually overheating, there is some type of freak issue with the cooling system causing a hot spot at the sensor, or there is some electrical issue with the overheat sensing system like a shorted sense wire or a bad sensor.

the over heating alarm can also go off if the sensor it is shorting out on something. I am guessing there is something more going on here though since it sounds like it doesn't actually turn any more? I don't have your manual so I cant check for you but maybe its oil related? I think I remember seeing that the oil system on some of these boats also has a continuous alarm.

have you had any developments since you posted originally?
