Please note that the PICTURE UPLOAD function is not working. The iBoats Forum Moderators are working with the system administration folks at the parent company to get the issue resolved. This happened about a year ago and here we are again. In the meantime you can post photos as links to a picture hosting site of your choice. We are sorry about the inconvenience and will advise when the issue is resolved. Thank you for your patience.
The motor has been completely rebuilt. First test drive hard intermittent banging that shook the whole boat. Removed lower unit, had it inspected, results showed in good condition. Recommended adjusting linkage. Banging reduced to minor bumping. Mechanic readjusted and bumping worse.
