Re: what does grey oil indicate?
To clarify for 12 footer, it is in the outdrive and the boat mechanic took off the screw down by the prop and then the cover at the top of the outdrive. Also, I did not buy the boat (yet) because I did not know the severity of the problem. Thanks to all of you I am beginning to think it is not too serious. Am I interpreting you correctly?The boat is 9 hours away at our "summer" place so I won't be able to check it out again until ******mas. Really appreciate your thoughts on this one as it was a "love at first sight" kind of thing. Also, I am very happy I took everyone's advice and had the inspection done even if I don't end up buying it. I highly recommend it for peace of mind and in this case, it made the decision not to buy much easier.
