Danny, sounds like low fluid...
Check for residue of fluid around the ram seals. Go to any FBO, (Airport) look for any flight operations and get a gallon of red hydraulic fluid. ATF is Ok, but the red has no bad stuff in it that can further damage your seals. Texaco brand is what I have always used in the TNT and the Bennett reservoir.. See ya, Ken

For sure sounds like low fluid. ATF worked for me in my old yami's. You may want to take off a lid from some other container that has a little pop up thingee. It makes it easier to squirt in the little hole without getting atf everywhere.
Also I think the gps said 65 not 60! ![]()

Snookered, I see you have twin 225's how does the hull handle them in relation to the scuppers? I just bought an 81 it also has twins, the previous owner had plugs laying on the floor next to the scupper drains so I kind of figured they would be neccessary, I have yet to put the boat in the water no heartburn if I have to use them. Can't wait till spring to try her out..gonna be a long winter.

compared to my old 18SF with a very light 130 Yami, my 23SF sits as good or better with regard to the scuppers. Each motor is around 445 lbs (carbs) and the bracket offers very little floatation. I leave my plugs out most of the time.
