Gear oil in bow thruster tunnel

[RichBirk]

On a routine walk-about around my 2019 29CB, sitting on it's trailer, I noticed a small puddle of gear oil that had dripped out of the bow thruster gear leg. Appeared to be 80-90wt gear oil, clear, no milkiness. Is this anything to be concerned about? (I already am.....)

I was under the impression that they were sealed units. You may want to contact Imtra directly. They are very accommodating.

So, got in contact with Ranger. They have seen this before and usually just replace the lower gear leg. Ivan ordered one for me and they will replace it on our next trip north. Really like working with Ranger folks and I am very glad that this boat lives on a trailer.
