Trolling with 125hp Merc on 19' Proline CC
 

When trolling, the engine seems to lose its prime and will eventually
kick out. It happens every 10-15 minutes. Once the engine starts
sputtering, you just have to go back and pump up the bulb and it
"comes back to life." It never happens at crusing speeds. Any ideas?

TIA
