So went for a quick cruise tonight and while heading back we lost neutral and reverse. From what I can see the buckets won’t go down. The gearing in the engine bay is working but the buckets will not go down. Any help would be appreciated. Luckily we had friends around to help us get in our slip without damaging anything.

Probably caught something in the reverse bucket that's jamming it open. It happens a lot, just don;t force the buckets. Wiggle around and see if they free up, or pull the buckets/pump/whatever it is in a BRP.

Thanks for the suggestion. I will try it later today. Right now I’m waiting on the tow truck for my tundra that won’t start!
When it rains it pours I guess
