Hello,
I have a 2017 Regal with volvo penta duo prop outdrive. We had the whole lower unit replaced and have had the boat out to test twice. I felt like the boat hesitated to go into drive yesterday which was accompanied by a slightly louder than normal knock when going into gear. When flushing the outdrive this morning I put it in drive (something that I don't normally do) to inspect the props while they are spinning. I immediately heard the regular knocking sound and could see the props slowing to accompany the knock. I put it back in neutral and then reverse. No knocking in reverse. I had it in gear for about 45 seconds as I didn't want to damage anything.
Any thoughts?
Please see the link on youtube, as iboats would not let me upload a .mov file.
thanks
