Hi guys,
Was out all day yesterday and the boat started to chatter just a bit. Then we went to eat and she was docked for a few hours before we went back out. We took off and as I got her up to plane at about 4500rmp she really started to chatter. My first thought was the lifters. Any other ideas? I checked the oil and it's right in between the add and full. I am getting good oil pressure. When I noticed it getting louder as I increased the throttle I backed way down and it was obviously less. I didn't try to put it in nutural and run the engine without the drive engaged.
