My boat is a 27' sea ray mercruiser 260,<br />Last time we took it out it ran fine out untill we tried to dock. It stuck in reverse and would not change gear, even though I could throttle.<br />After finally trailering the boat, I looked at the riser where the linkage is mounted and everything looked fine. I went out to troubleshoot today and while spinning the prop by hand and having the shifter moved from forward, neutral, reverse several times. I don't think the lower shift cable is broken. I felt different resistence at each shift.<br />For history, The outdrive was removed recently by a marina<br />for gimble bearing replacement,bellows and water pump/seal kit.<br />Could something be out of adjustment?<br />I'm kind of lost on which way to go from here<br />I really don't want to be in the same situation again<br />(stuck in 1 gear) Any suggestions??
