I have Velvet drives model number 20-01-005. My starboard drive is noisy. Nothing in neutral, but forward and reverse seem to make some noise. I guess I should start with the engine making sure its running on all cylinders, then if that checks out, change the fluid. If that dosen't fix maybe bore scope the inspection plate on the top of the drive. Anyone have any more ideas?
Thanks

Those are all good things to check. What engines do you have? You also want to ensure RPM isn't too low. Also possible flex plate.

Fyi the material use for the aft deck dodger board is Cyro Acrylite and is still available.
