appart from the colour and that stick, does the tranny works, shifts well?
that stick looks like its been rubbing against something in there. The drum comes into my mind, also the metal seems to have the blueish colour so at some point it has been very hot.... Flush it and put some fresh dex/merc type III ATF fluid. Regular no syntethics. Granted it's PCM 40a 1:1.23 tranny... |

Post a picture " of the broken tranny stick, if your fluid is grey metallic colored this doesn't sound good how many hours on boat? Most all DD Correct Crafts use Merc/Dex.
