Just an FYI for those with trim motor issues. Used the boat a few weeks ago and the trim worked fine. went out last weekend, and no trim, no noise no clicking, nothing. The boat was full down andused 1/4 tank of gas in less than an hour) I reset the 50a breaker (which took me too long to find since it was hiding in plain sight... ![]() |

Update: Installed the new motor without incident and it works Great! It actually moves a lot faster than the old one (maybe because the old bearing was wearing out). The DB Electrical guys shipped it first thing Monday (nice), I received it Thursday and installed it Friday night. It came with all new o-rings and seals so no unwelcome surprises. The only issue was one of the long bolts they sent with it was slightly bent, so I used one of the old ones. The whole thing was $132 landed and took less than 5 minutes to install. |

Mine stopped working all at once. It did sound a lot different than the new one so maybe it was gong out before I knew, but one day it was working fine, the next it stopped and threw the breaker. When I took the motor apart, it was obviously a bearing. You could barely turn it even without the magnets. Luckily the pump is fine that's another $4-500. |
