Hi all,
I guess after many years of boating, I never felt the outdrive after use. We were skiing for a while and I touched the upper part of the outdrive when it was submerged in water. The water temp. is around 81 and the drive felt warm. Not hot, just warm. Warmer than the water. Is this normal for an alpha 1 gen 2 to create a small amount of heat? The lower unit was the same temp as the water but the upper unit was warm. I see they make cooler devices but I never had any interest in getting one. Any thoughts or suggestions would be great.
Thanks in advance
