Went boating Friday and spun a coupler, we were out about 15 miles from the house and lost a coupler, so in the shop it goes Monday morning and shell out 2K to pull the engine and throw in a new one, ain't that a bitch.

I lost one a couple years ago when I grenade my drive. Problem was I didn't know the coupler was bad until I got drive and boat back together. Thing was vibrating like a out of balance washing machine. So back in the shop to yank the engine.
I don't think it was $2K though. I want to say it was less than a grand.
What happens when you have problems out there? Do you have Vessel Assist?

That's the blessing of having two engines, I could idle in on the other engine, but we have Sea Two and they come get you and tow you home it's about $175 a year, but the tow is free if you have it, it's well worth it.

That sucks.. I replaced mine when I put the new motor in it a couple years ago out of fear of this scenario..lol.
