Yes I've had the outboard kick up even at full speed. Usually it's hitting something like a stringer of kelp. If you're not paying attention it will pull the tiller handle from your hand. Once it happened and I never saw anything on the water surface but before I could re-grab the tiller the motor had come back down and the engine still going fast catches the water but in a slight angle so the Solo Skiff makes a quick u turn to the left while still traveling at over 10 mph and it literally turns out from under me and I fall over the side.
