I have the 276SSX and one of mine has a slight crack in it that I've been thinking about replacing. I'm guessing it's attached from underneath but haven't looked. I'll check next weekend and see if I can see how it's mounted.

I'm pretty sure those are the Mercury Bravo Outdrive Wear Pad Kit 805261A 1 I have the Bravo 3x model and that's my part number. Here's a pic.

Reach out to these guys and you send them your face place from your dash and they will re-finish it to exact same or anything else you may want. I did mine back in 2015 and have to do it again as it’s beginning to pit from the salt air. https://www.tecnografic.com/

Actually after looking at the video more closely it’s not the transom Assy Gotta be one of your hoses or bellows coming from the drive.

I have the crimp tool which makes the job super easy. Let me know what you need from me. Thanks Denny.

A dozen would be fine and yes the silver

Lol. Yuuup. Already learned my lesson the first time few years back. Lol. They are garbage and don’t even think they’re SS. They lost their shine in matter of months. The original TM still look new, years later.

Transom assembly needs to be replaced if it’s leaking while just sitting in the water

I hear ya but just think where fuel prices are going this summer. You could buy 5 SS anchors for the amount of money you’ll be spending on fuel. Lol.

Lol Sexy anchor Just looking to replace the unsightly Manson or Ronca, whichever it is, with something that looks aesthetically pleasing but also performs well. I try my hardest to keep my boat as pristine as possible, everything from rebuilding motor/outdrive, replacing upholstery to...

Here’s my set up.

Yeah. I’m aware of the chain length ect. I currently have a windlass set up with the Manson supreme anchor galv which holds great but it’s god awful ugly sitting on my bow and for the boat anchoring I do, ie sandbars in local barnegat bay NJ water it’s doesn’t need to be commercial grade. I’m...

Hey Doc, Yeah, so glad to see this forum. I’m sure all from the chap site will eventually find their way here. Thnks for the pic and info. The dry weight for my boat is 6800lbs. Just wondering if anyone with a similar boat has the lewmar Delta or DTX on their setup.

Hey fellow chaparral owners. Finally found the website to replace the old chap forum. Still can’t believe they shut it down but it was definitely hijacked by spam & what not. Anyway, I’m in the market to replace my anchor on my 276ssx and can’t decide on size. I have the windless set up now...
