Post Flames
After my 10 min boat ride to the camp I pulled up to the houseboat and turned off the motor a flame was coming out of the exhaust end . I was able to put it out with some water I turned the motor back on and it did it again . I notice the smell of gas after I turned it off not sure what I could be maybe my carb. Is leaking fuel but it didn't do it the following day. It's a. 32 up prodrive all stock with bout 71 hours . Any info would be appreciated

You have unburnt fuel in your exhaust.

Check valve settings and carb.
