i bet most people have the misconception that your drives are more expensive due to the boats they end up on... i rather have asd's than pay merc for sixes and my next cat will reflect that.... :cool:

Ship Shape TV did an episode on it, its running all week on Fox Sports Net http://www.shipshapetv.com/

definitely not for performance boats but big gains in speed with small yachts.
