I appreciate everyone's input and observation, you have all made very valid points to consider. I talked to Oliver at Bennett and he was frankly...
Thanks. Will do. Here's a few pictures as well. You can see the cyliner on the right is broken and the spring has fallen out of the cylinder....
Those are good possibilities I need to check on. I have not contacted Bennett or Donzi yet but plan to. I don't think it is temperature related...
The cylinder body (O.D.) is literally broken in half but the push/pull rod remains intact. I don't know what you mean about forklift operator...
The tabs do not extend past the transom. There is a recess they fit into. And where I fish there is no backing down on the fish so the only stern...

Which model Side Power Thruster stuck on? Did you find the source of the problem? I'm getting ready to install a Side Power unit so very...
Thanks, I'll give them a call.
Yeah, nothing worse than getting "new" faulty parts. The gear pressure sensor is a pressure transducer and they are pretty proud of those. I...
The width of the slip is not the issue. I can only tie on one side as there is a boat on the other side of me. In other words, I don't hve finger...
I appreciate all the input and great discussion. I have ordered my thruster and will install it this winter. I doubt it will get used much but...
