2 new wear rings = $134
new carbon ring and bellow = $80
new drive shaft protector = $17
complete carb cleaning and service.
The total price for the job was $2239 with labor!!! I took the boat up to the cottage and it was no better then before. It still cavitates just as bad. Needless to say the company that worked on it and I had some words and I won't be taking it back there. I really want to do the work myself and fix it. I've looked over a lot of the posts and I'm trying to figure out what the problem could be. It seems like they did most the things suggested in the posts. What else do you guys think it could be??

I've owned a 1998 speedster for 6 years now. I've had it serviced once a year and take really good care of it. Last year the right engine really started to cavitate. It takes for ever to get the boat to plane out, and if you have more then 3 people in the boat, it won't plane at all. We took it in and told them the problem. Here is a list of the work done on the boat.
