Not a good day for me yesterday.
We were headed out for a day of fishing and about a mile out of the inlet I lost power and she started knocking. I sat for awhile wondering if I should call Sea Tow but decided just screw it and limped in.
I pulled the heads and found little bits of needle bearings inside, metal shavings everywhere. Not sure if getting towed would have helped, I would not rebuild this powerhead anyway. The lower unit has been acting up and at nine years old it looks like it is time to repower.
Dangit!!
