Sounds like a familiar story for us at SOTW. We ran the boat up to about 112 making sure the rigging issues were worked out.. I slowed and stopped and then turned to go back into the harbor about 3 miles out! Well, just to my f'king pleasure, as I was powering up the boat. No sounds no blow outs, nothing. Just an engine reaching the rev-limiter and no tranny! I had reverse which was about worthless as two tits on a nun trying to put it on a trailer in heavy winds. OUwantsome and some cat with a big gold chain around his kneck and everyone else on the docs called us nuts to go trailer it. I am driving up the river with Scott from Mercury Racing saying "nothing" and Keith from CK/Baker in the engine compartment crawling around screaming back to me that the tranny was never properly installed. What a f'king circus. I am not a happy man when it comes to blown tranny's and mis-rigged electrical systems. I feel your pain Stecz, and soon some other people will feel ours!!! :evilb: :evilb: :mad: |
Re: Blew a trs this weekend
I've got new Konrads in stock or a bunch of TRS take offs' that belong to customers plus one set of my own. I would love to sell you some of my old trs stuff but you'll be happier with the Konrads.

I doubt very seriously if an Alpha could live behind almost 600hp. And why would anybody use it when the Konrad is available and can handle the power?? |

I have a left hand OMC stringer mount drive complete upper lower with a lab finished two blade prop. Only a low 4300 hours of use. Only been in slightly brackish water for 12 years and used commercially by the city sewer dept as a mixer and occasional clog unstopper. This thing is practically Mint. This white and slightly brown drive should give your boat a nice retro two tone look with your remaining TRS. Sorry not interested in your broken drive as a trade-in. Sorry we do not except checks, credit cards, paypal or IOU's. Might consider,
