RE: (ET) mover deck submerged.

The sealed bearing that are available are MUCH better than the OEM's.  I 
remember arguing with 
Bill Gunn about how much better they were roughly 10 years ago.  They can 
take under water for 
extended periods.  Bill later started selling the sealed ones too.

         If you get the water out quickly enough, none. If you  don't, and 
the motors still have the OEM shielded instead of sealed bearings,well 
you'll get to experience another facet of Elec- Trak® ownership, replacing 
bearings.
    I'm certain that there are some parts to the saga that you haven't 
shared with us . Is an Elec-Trak brake repair seminar in your future ? <G>
