    Default Vibration

    Hi Everybody,

    Last week I hit a branch or something under the water. I felt a bad vibration, immediately stopped the boat, put it in reverse for a second or two and then continued on. I went in shortly after that and everything seemed to be fine. This weekend I could feel a slight vibration when driving. I checked the prop for dings, etc. and everything looks clean. Anyone have any suggetstions? Thanks for your help

    I bent mine yest on a log/stump.... it is bent but you have to really look at it to tell... Compare the angle of all blades to make sure...
    If not the prop, let us know what you find out!

    Finally figured out the vibration problem!!!! I did a lake test with the mechanics at the dealer today and found that the rudder is super loose with a ton of play in it. They're going to replace it. Also found some type of plug missing on the carb and gas was dripping over the engine. Glad we found that one. Anyways, I should be all fixed up in a few days. The guys at Surfside Boats in Tempe really took care of me. Catch ya later.
