[QUOTE="johnr, post: 90332, member: 395"] I have the 07 optimax, I guess its a '13 now since that was the last time it was completely rebuilt for the second time. Warranty took care of the first blow up, which was determined to be from running the engine to hard prior to warming it up(which I never did). The second time there was a plug in the oil line which prevented the engine from getting the proper lubrications. outside of those two terrible situations, I have never had any issue with any of the many boat motors I have run. My favorite time to fish is early spring, when the water temp is just about freezing. Should be an issue at all, definitely let the engine warm up prior to giving it the gungous [/QUOTE]
