A few questions about my 2000 Legacy
So I have about 25 hours on the boat so far and have noticed a few things i was hoping to get answers to and hopefully fix if need be in the offseason. No big issues, just little nags.
- at speed, the boat wants to pull to the right quite hard if you let go of the wheel, its not a bear to drive but if you let go of the wheel, watch out, youre going right. Is this normal or can i adjust something?
- in the bilge i see the blower fan and it works, but there is no hosing/ducting attached to it. Should there be? seems like there should be.
-The boat has a Kenwood radio and a subwoofer under the dash, is this a factory system? doesnt say "marine" on it. It works, and is fine when youre sitting taking a break, but is worthless at speed because of the alternator/motor noise interference. any thoughts on curing that? also seems like the sub only works when the boat is running?
-when going straight at certain speeds i get a "howl" that is kinda loud. If you turn left or right the howl disappears but will return when you straighten back out. Its some kind of resonance, but what? if youre pulling anybody or anything, doesnt do it.
- when going in reverse is gear box whine normal? Forward is quiet, it is full of fluid.
- lastly, i noticed at the bottom of the hinged windshield and around the walk thru to the bow there are snaps. Was there a canvas piece that snapped on there? to block wind from coming through would be my only guess.
Thanks for any info or help on any of these, much appreciated.
