Just wondering if it will cause a problem if i put the boat in gear while it is hooked up to the garden hose? Should that be an issue? I need to test how it goes in and out gear and dont want to take it to the lake everytime i want to test.
So i took my 95 sea ray 175 series out today after work. This was the first time i have had it on the water since i replace the trim senders and solenoids.

Just wondering if anyone knew what the RPM's should be on a 1995 175 Series Sea Ray at idle?
I have mine set to 2 thousand RPM's right now but it seems a little high, and loud but if i adjust it down to 1 RLM it sounds to low like its going to puff out and stall?
Any ideas?
Thanks!
Anyone know where i can get a cheap seal that runs around the window for a 1995 Sea ray 175 Series?
