Welcome ... I'm very intrigued by your post above..about the water pouring out like an open faucet.......Why I'm intrigued is I suffered a similar "OH NO !!!" well not my exact words but you get the idea...I pulled out a transducer and the boat took a leak on me too...very short in duration ...but non the less- water out of the transom..and not a weep or drip ...IT WAS P--sing out...Like I said only a couple ounces but un-nerving at best....spoke to a transom guy and he had a boat that he was working on at that time and he said he got “ many five gallon bucket fulls of water” out...said it was all from up in the stringer system....SO……

How much water did you get out?? and how wet was the transom??

I take it you were satisfied with the performance of the CPES…

I ask because I'm contemplating putting in a new transom...even though there are no signs of distress in the transom..No cracks not even crazing at any corners or around the mount. I also have little distortion when jumping on the engine... ..but I know that transom is wet. I also have other motives (its going to need to be replaced at some point)to doing the new transom but this is driving it right now.

Anyone else had this problem ??? [img]images/icons/shocked.gif[/img]

Thanks
