Attached are the two estimates for
1) complete rebuild
2) new seals only

So.... Back again requesting advice. I had the yard mechanic pull our starboard tranny and it was sent to a shop for estimates on replacing seals and/or a complete rebuild. Ouch!! Seems to be an expensive proposition either way. They are estimating $1360 for just doing the seals (8 hrs of labor was ...

I spoke with the yard mechanic at Green Cove Springs where the boat is and he was on the boat looking at it. He has done the tranny removal and putting back in many times and stated the exact steps that have been discussed here (that parts reassuring). He says there used to be a shop that would do t...

Thanks for the input and instruction guys!

Good day all! For the past couple of seasons our port side tranny has had s small leak at what I believe is the rear seal.

Towing: We have both a 32 Sedan with twin engines and a 28 Express with a single engine. Love both boats! Buy one of each :lol: Seriously though, we have trailered both boats.

I have located what I believe to be a nice boat at a fair price that MIGHT be more appropriate for my wife a...

Thanks for all of the good input.... I've been offline for a couple of weeks so slow to reply, but thanks for the thoughts. My biggest challenge in accomplishing a re power like this is that the boat in question in unfortunately not at my home port so I would be either traveling a long ways and obvi...

sorry for the slow reply....I have been very busy the past couple of weeks. We have our (4) 6V batteries lined up in the engine compartment forward all the way against the fire wall. They fit there nicely.
