Hello, purchased a new T23 with FAE. Love the boat, but the FAE creates a lot of bubbles that rattle the wedge. It resinates through the entire boat. Only an issue when stopped or slow idle. It occurred when wedge is up or down. Has anyone else experienced this or know of a fix?

Check the nuts and bolts. Make sure they are tight.

Yeah, I tried that. Everything is as it should be.

Hey there, did you ever solve this? I have the same issue...even just at idle something from the back vibrates the entire boat?

I have a 2014 A24 and installed FAE.. Not rattling or vibration issues that we've noticed. Lot entirely sure it was worth the purchase and install.. Its a little quieter, and a little less fumey.. but overall not overly excited about it. Make wedge harder to get to for sure, although I've got it down now.

Have you called Larry at FAE? He can probably give you some information on it. Probably give you some suggestions.

I have a 2014 A24 and it is a pain in the ass to get the wedge down. I can't do it from above, I have to get into the water to lower it. I can raise it from up above. I do enjoy the lower engine noise for sure!

I never heard back from the original fella who posted so anyone else experience anything like this?
Its a 2015 T23 and when in neatrual or a very slow idle, there is a cyclic vibration that that is very predominant. Seemed to be coming from the back of the boat and when I put my hand on the surf pipe it was vibrating a lot but not totally sure that is the cause.
