Coupler Issue

[Stingray200]

Hey everybody!

Have an issue with a boat I purchased last year, I had it out all season last year and on Labor Day I blew out the coupler. I pulled the motor and noticed that it was a Bravo motor 350 MAG MPI and I have an alpha outdrive. When I pulled the motor it looked like the motor mount came loose and I thought that was the reason for the coupler going. But before I go any farther I wanted to make sure that it wasn’t the bravo motor and alpha outdrive issue.

thanks in advance!

Ayuh,..... Welcome Aboard,....... There are differences, but that's Not one of 'em,....

Agree, not Bravo/Alpha thing, most likely the motor was not aligned and that blew the coupler
