Default Leaking drive oil in bilge??

Yea I am scared that I may be leaking some drive oil into the bilge?? What can be causing this?? Their is no rainbows in the water but after about 5 hours of use I have to keep filling up the drive oil resivoir. I have never had this problem before, I have around 260 hours on this drive 2001 model XZ. A friend told me some seals may have worn out but i have never heard of that ??

All input appreciated

WILL

My Pantera did this too.
The grease fitting on the coupler rubbed a hole in my line.
Follow the line from the drive bottle to the drive to
make sure the line isn't cut anywhere.
Also check where the line connects to
the drive to make sure the connection is tight.

Check The Hose And Fitting Inside The Boat If You Dont Find A Leak Pull The Drive And Check The Yoke Shaft Seal. If It Is Leaking The Boot Will Be Full Of Oil.
Good Luck
