violent shake on 2013 wakesetter


Recommended Posts

i have a 2013 wakesetter and the other day at the lake it started to shake violently when accelerated, mainly in the steering wheel area and the whole boat shook. i had the prop checked and it was good. any ideas what it could be?

If you had been driving earlier with no problems and it just started up then there's a good chance you picked up some debris on the prop.  I had a fairly tiny twig get stuck on the inside of the blade and couldn't believe that was all it took to make the ruckus that it did.  It's happened before and a healthy dose of reverse usually works but that time it didn't.  When I pulled the boat sure enough a small piece of wood was still stuck on the blade.
