    Man, are you Sure the dog and gear are good? It sure doesn’t sound like it. Ok, giving it the benefit of the doubt, how about a bent shifter fork in the lower unit?

    Frank is right, of course. The damage may already have been done, from the sounds of things, seems like it has been jumping out of gear quite a bit. But, it would be nice to know what has caused the failure….
