Are you running out of fuel?  Is it in the middle to end of the pass?

    I had something similar happen to me a little bit ago. Changed the fuel filter and the problem went away. JMO

Same thing happened to my Carrera eclipse and I changed the fuel filter. Didn't happen again

Did the boat die on you at all or did the rpms just get jumping up and down?
