I sunk the KQ

I was going and all of a sudden the water was up to my knees and I stood up and it did a water wheely then the water was up to my butt. The only thing sticking out of the water was the front end and my waiste up.

I rode it out got onto dry land and then the belt started slipping.

I am going to snorkle it now. But I drained the water out. Seemed to take 5 mins put it in Nutruel for about 2 mins at half throttle and it was all good.

You cant be scared!! Supposedly there is a drain plug on the bottom of the case for the belt drive to help out the draining process. I wish I would have known that earlier this summer, my KQ has a snorkel in the process too.
