I know this is a really old thread but I took my boat out, went into reverse and I can’t get the port gearbox out of reverse regardless of the motor running or not.

It is definately not worn, the Bravo 1 is less than 5 hours old and they have been very easy hours.

Any suggestions, I just want to go boating?

You may have a simple cable issue. With the hatch open, have someone work the port shift lever and see if the cable from the helm to the shift bracket is indeed moving the cable from the shift bracket to the drive. If something appears amiss there see if you can shift the drive out of gear by hand manually at the shift bracket.

I have disconnected the cable from the shift bracket. The gear lever end works fine. The cable going into the drive is well and truly stuck.

Also tried rocking the propellor backwards and forwards while trying to shift. No luck either.

When the engine is running and you attempt to shift it out of gear, do you feel the shifter pulse/ ratchet?

kubcat 12-10-2018 08:33 PM

No, don’t feel anything. Just stuck with engine running or not.
