    How much water is it taking on????? You may have a transom bracket problem. Take a look behind your engines at the transom bracket and see if its leaking. If so sorry to say its a big job. Engine has to come out. Once the engine is out hopefully you dont have fiberglass damage. I had to do both of mine over the last few years. Good luck and keep us posted.

    Hopefully it’s just the rubber bellows that needs to be replaced.
