Shift cable needs adjusting, not letting transmission come completely out of gear ?

does it turn slowly or as if it were in gear?

If your not moving through the water, it's probably a shift cable adjustment. Try disconnecting the cable then moving the lever arm by hand. If you don't find "still" neutral, might be a seal issue.

Normal 99% of the time , is it turning slow or can you stop the shaft with a peace of wood ? if so your OK . the reason one side rotates and the other stays still ,is one of 2 things tighter clutches on the 1 gear box and/or less drag on the shaft on that side

Mine does this in neutral when the trans oil is cold. Once the oil warms up the slow rotating stops. Can also stop with a piece of wood as Paul says.

turns slowly, when in the water the boat moves in neutral, does the same with no cable on it, as it is winterized I guess I have to wait till it warms out or is there a test if I dissconnect the drive? Thanks for the help all!

If it spins slow in neutral ( goes faster in gear ) that is not abnormal some will and some won't . and the boat may move a little I have one in the shop that if you turn the input shaft by hand the output will turn from clutch drag ( new clutches set to spec) .
You most likely have normal clutch drag the colder the fld the more drag . go hop on 10 other boats and bet half of the may do the same .
put you car up in the air start it up in neutral and watch the wheels turn .

Sounds like you have a loose screw:)
A couple of years of therapy should fix you up.

What if the fluid / oil in the box is from a wrong type? Or maybe the oil is contaminated by "something"?
