what i initially though was going to be a leak somewhere in the lower unit on the 3.0L MerCruiser I/O on my 05 22ft SunTracker looks like it is going to be a leak on the starboard side of the engine bay where the steering cables (i think) enter the engine bay. the though hull fitting looks like threaded PVC pipe with a rubber boot over it secured with zip ties. the fellow i'm getting the boat from says that it will leak at mild speeds but at WOT it won't, presumably as the boat rides a little higher?
is this an easy fix? there was a similar problem on one of my seadoo's that was a pretty easy $20 fix.
