My 01 Utopia 185 with 200hp engine just died **Update**
This is the third time I go out on the boat, last time was a week and a half ago I was out all day just chilling/cruising/wakeboarding and had no issues. I had filled it with 140L of fuel before I went out last time and it's still above 3/4 full.
The boat stayed anchored in the water since then, I went out today, inspected everything no water in the engine bay or anything so started up the boat and went off. I cruised around for 5-10 minutes slow at first to warm her up then 20-25mph, it was pretty choppy so I didn't want to go too fast and then all of a sudden the boat died. No sputter nothing just died.
So I try to start it again and it turns over no problem but won't fire up. I let everything air out, I looked into the engine bay I couldn't see anything that looked out of place, half hour goes by still turns over but won't fire.
Is there a fuel shut off or fuel reserve or something that I'm missing?
Any thoughts?
If it doesn't fire up in the morning I'll bring it in for service
Thanks,
Jerome
