Hi all,
New to the forum and a new owner of a 1972 Ericson 35. Experiencing some issues where the boat will not move in forward or in reverse.
I believed it was possibly an issue of transmission not engaging. However, after performing an adjustment of the reversing gear, I can see the transmission is engaging and the propeller shaft is spinning. From what I can tell the propeller is not turning, despite the propeller shaft turning.
I am not familiar with the drive system and whether there is another linkage/coupler that could have failed between the propeller and the propeller shaft I can see turning inside the boat.
Any insight would be greatly appreciated.
