I am new to boats and just required a 1988 Baretta Phazer 230.
I am working on the drive release and found the thrust sleeve is bent.
Also looks like there should be a piece screwed on the bottom of the tilt plunger. it looks to be missing.
Has a Volvo Penta 225 in the boat but cannot find any info on what Volvo drive the boat has. Numbers tag is missing
Where can I find this info,so I can get parts.
any help.

Also, Would this be a "tilt only" drive, or does it have trim as well?
Thanks

If you can post a pic it would be helpful. It sounds like you may be missing the foot from the tilt assembly. Here's what it should look like from the back, behind the outdrive.

Since our boats are the same year and make, I'm going to guess you've got a 275 outdrive, or perhaps a 285. The exhaust are different. The 275 has a pie shaped exhaust outlet with a rubber flapper just above the propeller. A 280 or 285 outdrive have a wide flat exhaust outlet. Which do you have?

Nice to see another Baretta owner on the boards!
