I had some time to take a look at my shifters aboard our twin engine Sea Ray Sundancer to see if I could get them to operate a bit more smoothly.
A little bit of investigation and a generous amount of white lithium grease went a long way in making things a lot better. Now that we've put another two weeks of cruising on her, both shifters continue to operate much nicer 👍

Known as the best fresh water cruising grounds in the world, Georgian Bay is located in the heart of the Great Lakes and forms part of Lake Huron. Renowned for is rugged beauty, Georgian Bay has been attracting adventurous boaters for over a century, but it's rocky shoreline and challenging navigation routes are not for the faint hearted and must be approached with the greatest care and respect. I'm happy to share our own adventures through this inspiring area with my 'Georgian Bay Boating' Playlist here: [ Ссылка ]
