No Reverse

My dad passed away 4 months ago. He said he got the boat fixed just a couple of weeks before he passed away. I have it at my house and I was going over it, cleaning it charging batteries etc... It is a 1989 Four Winns Liberator 201 with the OMC King Cobra 350. The issue is while letting it run in the driveway (with water ears) it would go in forward but not in reverse. I think he was supposed to have that fixed and maybe a boot replaced. I dont have anything showing where he might have taken it or what was fixed. I have numerous outboard boats and I have done some things with cars but this is my first stern drive boat. What are some things that I should be looking for or at to see what could be stopping it from going into reverse. Any help is great. Thank you.

Welcome aboard, and my condolences on the loss of your dad.

I got your duplicate post fixed. One of the guys will be along about your shifting issue. I don't know the cobras very well.
