 not so smoothi noticed that when playin around in my boat yesterday that if i was goin around 10 mph or so there was alot of vibration and when i gas it there is alot of vibration almost the the point of shaking. i do not remember my old motor being like that and was wondering if its something i should contact pro-drive about.

Re: not so smooth Sounds like something's out of balance. I'd give them a call.

Re: not so smooth Does it do it out of water? If so, take the prop off and see if it still does it, maybe you can narrow it down.
