I recently acquired a 1997 Sea Ray 210 BR with low hours. This is my first boat with a mercruiser outdrive. I've noticed a slight knocking noise from the outdrive when when throttling up and turning from a dead start. The outdrive sounds fine at higher speeds when turning or when pulling up a skier in s straight line. I was told this noise had been there since the boat was new and that the dealer had confirmed this is normal for mercs due to the dual u-joint design. Anyone have any feedback on this?
