Bravo 3 prop seal leak
 
Is it normal for the prop shaft seals on a bravo three to seep some oil after sitting up all winter? Just got mine out this morning to clean up and do spring maintenance and noticed a very small amount of drive oil from behind the props. I had new seals installed last season and had no problems. I have not fired the engine up yet

Pretty sure that is not normal. My Bravo did that due to a tweaked prop shaft. New shaft an seals no leak now. I've had the bass boat outdrive do the because of fishing line getting tangled in there.

Cleaned the small oil drip off the skeg and ran the motor with muffs for a while and dis t see any more leak. Went to the lake this afternoon and ran it a few hours. Level never dropped in the reservoir. I dunno? Ill watch it and see if it leaks again this week
