Subject: [Cal_Boats] Noise in driveline
Hello everyone, I have a cal 33 with a Graco two blade folder prop and I'm trying to figure out what a noise is that only happens sometimes. I mentioned the prop because I'm hoping it's something that happens rarly with the prop that cuases the noise. It only happens under engine and happens about once every 20 hours or so then it slowly diminishes over a period of about 10-20 mins. Its a fairly loud tap tap tap and goes with the engine speed. The first time it happened was the worst. I thought the transmission blew or i wrapped a crab pot line around the shaft and maybe it was banging. It don't sound that violent now when it does it but it still does it at times. Could the bearing be going out in the tranny? Appreciate any input. Matthew SV Warm Winds 86 cal 33
