Ok, so it was the cruise control. I feel a little dumb, but at least it wasn't something more serious. After thinking about your replies, I remembered that the weekend before, I set cruise at 17mph when I was coming back in because our lake gets a lot of debris this time of year when the big storms roll through. That is a speed that I can hopefully spot stuff and react. Last year I hit a chunk of wood about 10" in diameter x 2' long that was floating under the surface. Cost me a prop and a week on the water. When I went out this morning the cruise control was still active. After turning it off everything was normal. Yeah!! All is good in the world again and I can sleep at night. I do find it odd that the Cruise control stays on even after shutting down the boat and turning off the power for a week.
Much thanks to all of you. I'm new to the wakesurf world. The boat I had prior didn't have all the gadgets and capabilities that this one has. There's definitely a lot to figure out. This forum has been a great resource for me.
