That's the 64 dollar question. I have been told by one owner he lost his warranty. On the other hand a unnamed rep told me you would not. He said it's like adding after market accessories to your car or truck. They will have to prove that the spacer caused the problem. I only have a one year warranty anyway. At one time I believe Mercury sold spacers also. And Sonic said they would warranty them since they put them on the boat.

Somebody else have any info on this?

The only problem I see is that Sonic did not install the 2" spacers. That maybe their way out of any warranty. I really hope they back their word on this one.

Good question, but they paid for the spacers and the installation. Who knows

Was a tad on the nip-ply side. Hoping to get all the kinks out before summer. Thanks

The only way I can get my boat out on the water would be to tow it out on the ice!

It's February 14th and still no word from Sonic on my drive showers or invoices totaling to over $1500.00. Mechanic says he's not waiting to much longer before billing me.

I guess I can sell the brand new pair of Bravo 4 blade 30 pitch props in my garage that belong to Sonic. Also have a pair of brand new B-Max 1" drive spacers they want back. Any offers?

I heard Richard Hewitt holds payments for 90 days. I'm there.
But a birdie tells me he isn't anymore....
