Just got a call from the shop - motor power head is toast. 225 YAMAHA
had only 235 hours on it - mechanic said they saw no reason for the
motor to fail - broke rings and burned piston and cylinder. Motor is 7
years old but I never run it hard. Will be interesting - and
expensive! - to see what happens.


Ouch. Sorry to hear that.
