Hey ..
so at the beach to anchor the boat and anchor didnt sit well and ran to the shore and the scag must have hit the bottom...i pushed the boat into deeper water then tried to start engine and go forward and noticed knocking kind of sound. i look down into the engine and notice that there is a shaft going through the transom and to the outdrive that is not spinning which it is supposed to be doing.
anyone know what possible damage this is? i talked to a mechanic of mine and he said its the defner (sp?) and that the engine will have to come out to get to that.
thanks for your help.
