Default Help? Bravo 1 Question

Was Running In A Poker Run Saturday Pretty Rough Water In My 32 Active Thunder With 500 Hps And Bravo 1 Drives Was Running About 65 Mph And Felt The Boat Slow Down So I Shut Down And 1 Drive Has No Forward But Reverse Works Fine, If I Shift It In Forward And Try To Spin Prop IT Spins Free No Noises At All, But If I Try To Spin It Backwards When It Should Lock It Does Not And It Gets Tight Then Loose (Clutches Maybe.

Thanks For Any Help

It's in the upper. Possible the floor of the driven gear. Why don't you send the drive to us we can turn in around very quickly. We are a Merc. Service center. Give me a call at;

I agree, you probably blew the floor out of the upper gear. Pop the top cap and take a look.

so to take a look i dont need to pull the drive , just the top cap and if it is that then do you need to pull the drive and tear it down orcan you do it from the cap. nalso is there a 3 bolt plate you can remove and see the shift componets.

thanks
