Well; we had a full boat, 5 adults. 21" pitch -- boat went 40mph @ 4200 RPM.
one of the people was the boats previous owner -- he commented on how quiet it was & how much faster it was; he was impressed However, we had an embarrassing moment..... When we docked; it wouldn't go into neutral. gotta go down today & figure that out -- might be that shift upgrade that's been mentioned. Thanks again to everyone's advice & help on all my Q's -josh --- AntiSpam/harvest --- Remove X's to send email to me. |

Great news Josh! I knew you could do it. A little TLC is all these machines
require to run like they should. I wish I could help you with neutral, but I never had a problem, so I never had to tinker with it. --Mike "Josh Assing" wrote in message ...

![]() I wish I could help you with neutral, but I never had a problem, so I never had to tinker with it. As it turns out; it's not the outdrive, it's the control unit -- it has a slight "indent" right before it actually goes into neutral -- so it "feels" like it's in neutral. The PO was on the boat too; and he tried; and did the same thing I did; so I don't feel too stupid -- just another thing to "keep in mind" or fix -- today ; no issues with it; now that I'm aware of the issue.
