That's what you get for not putting 4 bolts up top and double nuts.....

There is so much wrong with this video, its unbelievable. Why not tie the motor up? Why are you taking a kid on a sea trial? At least the bloke had a crescent wrench. Good lord.

Yeah, but probably the same price to get towed 30 miles back home as it is to send a diver out to retreive the engine. Engine really not worth getting back anyways, went down screaming, probably broke a lot of internal parts and the salt water destroyed everything else. only ting salvageable would be the prop and lower unit.

That verado just went where it belonged.
I love the commentary in the background. "Any other boat would have flipped over, capsized, broke in half, caught fire, this is the best boat ever!!"

Torque wrench, locking stainless nuts, red locktite for good measure. If seriously in doubt, aircraft safety wire. I use torque wrench on everything these days it has upped my end game of builds ten fold. Hardly ever have mystery fails anymore. Who'd a thunk it, until ya sunk it

That port motor looked lower on the trans from the start. I bet it was loose from the get go and just vibrated the rest of the way off.
