That being the case, and since you have it this far apart, certainly you'll replace the coupler. It's not that expensive, especially compared to what it costs to have a shop replace it. Anything else would be false economy.

Been there, done that.

Lets just say the first year the boat was run harder than I should have. I think MAYBE got some air without pulling back on the throttle or I hit something??? We all ways run out as soon as the wind comes up . This boat loves windy days. So i dont blame Mercury at all. **** happens if you dont drive it right. C n T
