[QUOTE="Specknreds, post: 139901, member: 801"] Sounds like too many amps for your wire size (do not know you wire size), but could be a number of things. Did you extend the wire or is it all factory wire? Could be a bad connection. 42lbs thrust should be sufficient. I have a 40 something on a 1448 that is very heavy and it will sling you out the boat if not careful (only happened twice :D ). [/QUOTE]
