When first running a new boat or first time in the season, I run the boat mid-throttle while looking for the water ejecting from both sides of the boat before running WOT.
Zelos 36 water, cooling system works just fine. Hot battery wires or EC5 connectors can make contact with the hatch foam and the result is obvious when you bring the boat and see the melted/deformed hatch foam, but I think this normal, OK.
Trying to avoid over-heating batteries: 1). Use stock props or ensure prop pitch/size not too large. 2). Ensure flex shafts are well greased ever few runs. 3) Run boat in calm, smooth water. When boat is out of water cooling system is not working.
