imco extreme sc ?
Next year I plan to up grade power to approx 750+
currently at 600+ and have an xz drive. I ran across an imco sc for $5500.00 w/ 20 hrs in good shape. Question... Should I pick this up?
I need a seasoned vetrans advice.

Re: imco extreme sc ?
I dont see any particular problems with the SC. They suck just as much as a Bravo XR. The design of both are so similar, they both have the same weakness. After all, Imco uses Merc gears, nothing special there. Although I broke an Imco vertical shaft last year, I believe the shafts are a bit better. I had the old style vertical shaft with the oiling hole. Their new shaft design doesnt have that useless hole, so may be better.
