Hiya,

If memory serves me correctly, there will be a screw of some sort that you can turn tighter to adjust the hydraulic pressure. It has been a long time since I have seen an issue such as that, but that might be a start.

The next thing would be a bad seal on the hydraulic cylinder. It may not be enough to show a leak, but my guess is there might be some air in the system that can escape while under load.

I don't think the fix is hard or painstakingly long... My gut says an adjustment screw, but I will say that firmly with tongue in cheek.

Thanks for the reply Steve. I sure hope you are right. I recently spent (WAY too many) hours wiring and networking electronics. I posted the issue on Lake-Link and one guy said he had a bad check valve and couldn't find parts, so he sold the boat.

Trouble is it works fine dry and has be to under power to show symptoms.
