Found a 2009 44 Sojourn that I am looking at purchasing.
I can't seem to find anywhere details on the steering seal for this boat and if it is the older bronze or a newer SS.
In theory the 20009 had the new SS.
This boat was an early 2009 build and has the 2008 D6 370 engines but cannot find any details of if the IPS-C is 2008 or 2009 w/ SS seal.
Any help would be appreciated.
Boat is a fresh water only boat on a large closed lake all its life.
Thanks

With the serial number, a Volvo dealer should be able to call Volvo tech support and find out.

I was able able to verify that the drives were manufactured on 7/04/08 and came with the Stainless Steel Seals.
We are purchasing the boat.
