              Don't know why some of my pictures keep posting sideways. But you get the idea! Tomorrow it should be finished after stain, seal, varnish!

              JPriami, notice anything here??

                        One last pic before I try and hit the waters tomorrow. My packs got delayed so the Zelos and Voracity date will be postponed another couple days.

                          Well I'm having a heck of a time with these outdrives. The grease keeps getting sucked out as I drive. First it was leaking bad where the outdrives meet the transom. I silicone that area. Now I see its also getting sucked out where the adjustable part of the drive goes into the fixed area. I've only driven the boat on the lake 3 times now. It's causing excess wear on my flex cables also.

                            Have you adjusted strut by any chance?

                              How do you guys use 3 straps when packs are all the way forward? Or is it just two?

                                It did this out of the box on the first run. I adjusted the struts maybe 0.5mm the 2nd run & it did it. No adjustments for the 3rd run and it did it.

                                I just removed both of them for inspection. It appears to be leaking from where the piviot ball screws into the long shank of the outdrive. It was really loose at that connection. That's where the bulk of the grease was & those threads were covered in it. Im guessing water passing by it at a fast rate creates a vaccum. Then the grease gets pulled out. I'll clean the grease and use a little locktite on reassembly.
