That would explain it!

So my speedo wasn't working.   Figured the pickup in the lower unit was plugged from all of the **** weeds.   Didn't think much of it.   Came home and inspected everything.   All ok.   But wait.... why is there so much water in the bilge?  Ah...... a broken quick disconnect on the speedo tube to transom shield.   I must have screwed it up when I greased the coupling.

Off to the dealer.....

Mark I wish you were in my pond.  Hate to see this happen but reinforced your knowledge of your Rinker.  Hope all is well after the repair.

Thanks.   All is well.   Wished they were all this easy!
