Default Problems

Yesterday I left launch to see about shooting a deer about halfway to my hunting spot my motor felt like it “let go” I could hear a knocking sound that almost sounded like splines on drive shaft may have stripped. I shut motor down trimmed up spun prop pulled pushed and determined the sound was inside the head. Running on 2 cylinders I went to hunting spot, started back up about 4 hours later motor cranked fine lugged to launch. Returning home first thing I did was pull off cowl and look at plugs… Bingo my #2 plug gap had been closed and you can see where something inside cylinder struck it, I haven’t had a chance to pull head off yet but what do you guys think? Maybe a ring that a piece chipped off? I know I’m looking at some $’s… BTW it’s a 2008 50hp TLR Yamaha.
