Strange noise/rattle cant find, help
Took the boat out today and had a strange noise that I cant track down. Its a high pitch rattle/rubbing noise but not very loud, just enough you can hear it at no-wake speed. Kind of sounds like a coin being spun around in a glass jar(best description I can think of) and seems to be coming from between the starboard engine and drive. (502/Bravo 1). Spent some time looking for it but couldnt identify anything loose or locate it excatly. Any ideas.

If I had to guess I would say gimbel bearing.
