<br /><br />Keep in mind that they're primarily made for warmer weather. A bit of difficulty starting isn't at all unexpected in your climate at this time of year. Your Neutral rev limiter probably kicked in if it has such a thing. If it's a problem when the boat is underway, then it's a problem. Revs aren't good on a motor when there's no load.
