Re: gimble to transom

People use the word "Gimbal" a lot, but it doesn't mean much since there isn't a part known as a "Gimbal"
There is a Gimbal Ring, Gimbal housing (aka transom shield on outside of boat) and a Gimbal Bearing.
People also use the word GIMBAL when referring to Volvo intermediate housings, which have absolutely nothing to do with a gimbal.

Read this thread in the link below. Then we will have somthing to go on.

Re: gimble to transom

confusion must be with these marine terms- 1975 fiberglass boat mercruiser mc outdrive- Question is, On the back of fiberglass boat is there any kind of gasket or sealer that goes between fiberglass and metalpart of Mercruiser assembly that mounts to rear against fiberglass,inside the boat or outside the boat that prevents water from coming in, or do i rely on superior mercruiser surface sealing against boat manfacturers superior gelcoat surface to seal mating area , thanks chris
