Re: Vibration at 2200 - 2500 rpm
If you have a boat still under warrenty I would not buy that the spindle is dead on. The outdrive should be checked for alignment. This requires the outdrive to be removed. It only takes twenty minutes to remove it. After it is removed you can reach in through the u-joint bellow as it is large enough to put your hand into the gimble bearing area. Put two finders into the center of the bearing. Move it back and forth. It should feel smooth. If rough it is bad. Also, have the shop put an alignment tool in and check the alignment. It sounds like you need to see this done. As far as a bent prop, if it is bent it will damage your lower prop seals. If this happens you could get water in the outdrive. Hope this helps.
