I have a 2004 200 optimax with only 65 hours on it. I have been having a problem lately with it stalling lately while going about thirty mph. It seems to only happen on the way back to the launch for whatever reason and usually in a decent chop on the water. When it stalls it sounds like it revs up a bit then just dies. Any thoughts?

I'm having a major case of deja vu.

Doesn't do this at higher speeds? I'm thinking fuel delivery issue. How's the bulb when it stalls out? Hard or soft? Do you have to pump the bulb to get it started again? Or does it start right up and run?

Need more symptoms.

Not sure about higher speeds I typically only run around at 30 on lake Erie in my pro v. It starts back up without pumping the ball
