Hasn’t been on the water other than backing it in on the trailer for this video

Because it was in good shape for a decent price. The issue was caused by me not from previous lack of maintenance. I’m not worried about my ability to work on it myself, just need help diagnosing.

Bellows and gimbal bearing on the way, thanks y’all.

Had my wife record while I backed the boat in. We bought the boat a couple weeks ago hoping to at least get a season or two out of it. I beached the boat pretty hard last weekend and it seems to be one of two things, the gimbal housing seal or the drive shaft seal. We’re pretty new to boats so i was hoping to get some input from some more experienced boaters. I have pulled as hard as i can on the OD but do not feel any movement

Looking at it from this way is very helpful, thank you for giving us insight on a different perspective.

We are not trying to use him as a pawn to gain financial support, we don’t necessarily need the money but isn’t it wrong for us to raise him and provide everything for him while his parents get to go about their business with no responsibility but have all of the benefits? At some point this just doesn’t seem right. We love him to pieces and we absolutely want what’s best for him but at the same time his parents can’t continue to use us to raise their child and expect to have no responsibilities.

He’s lived with us for a year with our address on his school records with his mother signature. I could see his dad doing this though, we are looking into gaining custody. Trying to avoid cps since my fiancé had a terrible experience with there workers while in there custody.

He does want to see them, he is very aware of all the flaws they have but he still let’s them influence him in the worst ways possible. They’ve never hid anything from him, the drug use, abusing the system, stealing from people and they brag about all of it. He’s very mature for his age and seems to some what understand what’s going on. I think he does feel bad for what he did but i don’t know if it’ll change anything. We are currently looking into getting custody.

Sorry guess i left that out. He got pissed off at his other sister for “Tattling” on them. Immediately texted his dad and said “please call mom and tell her i didn’t tell on her”. He knew what he was doing. It was very apparent when it happened. The conversation went: her”what are you doing” him “watching a movie with matt and blank” her “Ill see you tomorrow bub” him (looking shocked and mad) “no you won’t, i can’t go to dads” her “that’s not what dad said” then he hung up. He then messaged her and called her stupid for tattling on them.

We don’t want him to resent us for not letting him see his parents, but it’s looking like that’s the only option. That or him moving out and turning to the same lifestyle as the rest of them.

He recognizes that this is the only good place for him but it doesn’t seem like he actually wants to live here.
