Merc has a new splash plate assembly. It has 3 bolts instead of one. I lost both of them last year along with my labbed props. Call Merc racing and talk to Randy...920-921-5330

What the hell are those ungangly looking things you guys are slapping on your drives.
What can those "Fred Flinstone" looking attachements bring to your rigs? Man those things are scary...

I had 4 of them come off!!! Merc finally has a fix put the new ones one no problem so far! It amazes me that Merc being a manufacture does not cover there own defects. If your where any other company you would be getting sued let and right.
