Hey fellas, getting what looks like oil in my bilage, all my levels are fine, motor is running good, oil pressure is normal everything seems normal. Boat ran perfect all last season into September when I shut her down, at some point late fall early winter I noticed the sludge in the bilage. I cleaned/ pumped it up once this winter but it's built back up. I haven't really run the boat, just once after the clean up and it was down 200 to 400 rpm which I am guessing was growth from being moored sept to march in the salt. Showed up today to haul out and clean the bottom and there was a good amount of growth, and the oil/sludge dammit. Motor is a 5.7 TKO merc with alpha 1 gen 2 on a 2359 trophy all 07 except leg replaced new last season. Motor has 600hr. Any thoughts ?
