1999 moomba outback LS.
I just put in a new motor in my boat because of marina doing piss poor work.
Anyway I have been going through the breaking period and have about 7 hours on it.
So I have tried to get up to full speed just recently. As I hit 40 mph I get a sound like metal releasing.
I was thinking it could be a alinement issue with the motor, trans and the shaft.
Dealer said it sounds like a flex plate.
The motor and boat sound and work great until 40 when it makes that sound. I've only gone up to that seed twice and each time it made the same sound. I pull back on the throttle after the sound is made so I don't know if it would continue making the sound. Any thoughts and help would be greatly appreciated thank you.
