OK, so after a couple of decades of owning boats, it took less than a year with my first ever NEW boat to hit something large enough to cause serious damage. Obviously, the submerged log won the battle and damaged the outer shell of the LU knocking a hole in the nose cone.
I didn't see any LU fluid or anything, the boat never ran had, no vibrations, nothing to indicate damage occurred until i put it back on the trailer and saw this. i want to know if the LU part that was damaged was a shell and the inner parts that hold the gears and LU oil are sealed within this or not. After running back and putting it on the trailer, i didn't notice the LU was overly hot or anything. i'm just hoping someone on here can give me a better understanding of what sits behind this outer shell.
Anyone care to give me a LU 101 lesson on this motor?
