See full version: Outdrive Leaking Water into Boat
I'm a new member of this site and could really use some help. I have a 1986 Four Winns with the Volvo Penta outdrive. I had it out this weekend and noticed the boat was taking on water inside the engine compartment. The water is coming in at the top of the outdrive portion. I'm assuming it's a bad seal. Is this something that I could fix myself (Fairly mechanical), or is it best to take it to the shop. more

If you're noticing alot of water now, it's probably been leaking for a while. Could be the shift or u-joint bellow. With the vibration that your speaking of, it's probably the u-joint bellow. Most likely it's taken out the gimble bearing, thus the vibration.
As opposed to a dangerous guess? [links]
