I just bought this gently used 2004 200 Select with only 32 hours :smt001 . I recently put it in the lake and I felt a vibration that seems to begin at about 2500 RPMs. I felt it in the floor and it can be heard as well. I was told by a friend that it was probably a prop(s) that need to be rebalanced. So I did that. They were fine. The problem still exists. I also greased the gimbel bearing.
The last thing I did was put the boat on the boat lift and reved the engine to about 2700 RPM+. I still feel the vibration. Maybe not exactly to the same degree, but I feel it in the floor and throughout the body of the boat. The engine does not misfire, hesitate, and runs very smoothly. The props are confirmed good. The lower shaft spins straight. What now?
I am a new sea ray owner........what do you all suggest that I do :smt017 ? I NEED YOUR HELP (at least some suggestions!)
