I have a 1998 31 open. I haven't ran the boat much. Picked it up 2 years ago and as you guys may know we had a hurricane in 2022 here in Fort Myers that killed another year so it's been pretty slow going getting everything back together but now when I put the boat in forward both engines make a squealing noise. At first I thought it was the belts replaced. All the belts belts are good but the noise still comes when I put it in forward when RPMs are low as I raise up the RPMs gradually the noise goes away so I'm not sure where this might be coming from. Check the transmission fluid. It looks good. Very clean. I don't think there's any issues there, but I'm worried that it might be coming from the the box where the shaft is connected.
