Picked up boat today from having a new LU put on. Break in period or just run it? Didn't pick it I put myself so I didn't ask them.

Not aware of any LU break in; however, I'd change the LU oil after first 10-20 hours.

No break in period, but a lube change at 10 hours will give you a chance to check for water, leaking seals, etc. It's cheap insurance.
