Hello everyone. I have a 2002 glastron gx205 with a Volvo penta 5.0. Yesterday I noticed it didn’t want to engage and go forward. It would rev up and and certain time I could get it to engage forward but it would make a slight thump. Reverse works perfect but it is having a hard time engaging to go forwards. Any help would be appreciated

Welcome
I would check the lower shift cable and see if it's connected and moving correctly
