Well, I finally made it down to the boat to check on the tranny. One of the shift rods was a little out of alignment but not where it should have been a problem. I straightened it out and shot some red grease on everything that moved regarding the shifter, worked it back and forth with the motor off then started engine and tried again. This time I was able to get it in gear with minimal grinding. I shut engine again and repeated spraying and working the shifter again, then tried with engine running again. It got much better. I was able to shift without the grinding. Very weird, but I am very happy now. Let's hope everything stays like this.
