Just reading this now - that sucks!!!
I'm assuming it is the same engine that had water ingress before?
May want to check @I know You know postings, he's got an (overheat?) related (exhaust manifold?) leak they say, but it sounds like the cooling passages/gaskets maybe leaking cooling (salt) water...

They found gas mixed with the oil so they think there is a leak somewhere. That's all I got for today. Won't have any more info until Tuesday.

Still not much of an update. Sounds like they can't find the cause. Dealership requested new motor but apparently Yamaha only made this motor for one year. I guess Yamaha techs still going back and forth with dealer.

Well I have the boat back finally. No word on root cause. Everything starboard has been replaced... engine... ecu... wiring harness... etc. Hope to take it out soon.
