I found an odd device! wonder what it is!

Well I have not had the time to get into taking that out yet. I will try to do that tonight. I have been working on the floor and the out drive. My tiller arm on the gimble housing is really loose. I have an extra gimble so I have been working on changing them out. Someone has already cut the holes in the current housing so you can get in there and tighten the pinch bolts. But it is to the point that I have to replace it now. This is only my 2nd i/o drive boat I have owned and this one has a TRS drive. I have just dicovered that they are a little hard to find parts for.

Well hopefully I can get it out tonight and I will post some pics of the internals as soon as I get some.

Those could very likely be acctuation valves for either air/vacuum or liquid. Gotta be specific to application, though. Let's keep looking 'cause I'm rather intrigued as well. Location seems sort of odd.

Sorry Guys,
I know I have been slacking. I finally got my new baby in the water (after a new floor, gimble housing, and rear padded deck) and I have been taking her out every chance I can. That and I am bagging a 1994 Toyota pickup. It should be done tonight so that will free up my time to pull that thing out and get some pics. I will update in the next day or so. Promise! Please don't beat me too bad! heh heh!!

It is for the wet bar! You were right about that. My boss has one on the top deck of his 64' Bluewater. Each hose hooks up to your choice bottle of booze and when you hit the botton that is what flows from the tap. Pretty cool huh?
