    rattle sound in transom while idling

    anyone have that issue? swim deck used to vibrate a bit.. tightened that up... wondering if blower mounts or something are causing it?

    On mine its either the starboard hatch latch or the door/cover for the storage area on the transom activity center. On the transom activity center there are little rubber/plastic stoppers that the hatch is supposed to rest on and they rubbed off on my boat. I put new ones on and the rattle stopped.

        When we demoed the rear hatch had a latch that was loose and it rattled like crazy.

            My RZR did the same, but it was the swim platform bolts.

              Thread locking compound?? Is there a product used for marine applications?

                put loctite on my swim platform bolts.. seems to have helped.. was debating if that failed some plumbers putty on the threads?

                  We had one giveing us a fit , it turned out to be the battery isolator mounted in the center of the transom, the screws were loose, you would swear it was the platform.

                        Dom is always right, except for one thing.

                          mark my post as solved.. was that same isolator. top screws both loose. easy to tighten.. just removed the back wood panel behind the engine and its easy to tighten, the piece is just appearance item.

                          SWEET!
