Post This doesn't look good
What a day. 88* sunny and hot. See all total of about 20 ducks and ended up with 3 out of 5 shots. So decided to scout a bit on the way back in. Heard a thump and then smell 90 W gear oil. Look back and find MILK :(

"heard a thunk"? Did the case split? Gears lock up? Still running or what?

The lower seal was replaced with the new 3 seal nut about 6 weeks ago. Ran the motor with new 90W and drained it again refilled again with new 90W. This all came out of the top behind the cover for the clutch.

Oh and it didn't lock up. Eased it back to the ramp and onto the trailer.

thats what just happened to mine. Lower seals went out, sucked in water, built up pressure and blew it out the vent which is by the clutch. Replace seals.

You should have bought a tall transom! You could have gotten at least 2 more hunts out of it! :lol:

Hate to say it, but you might have a worn prop shaft ( look for grooves where the seals ride the shaft). The plus side is you can upgrade to the newer grease filled LU! Its the schitt!

Got the seal nut in yesterday and installed it last night. Filled with 90W and we're ready to go again.

Glad you back on the water, thankfully it was a fairly easy fix
