bravo one limits
I'm told that a standard bravo one drive will last no problem on a boat that weighs just 3000 lbs with 425 up to 600 hp. Assuming normal recreational use, do you agree? Thanks for your guidance.

Your personal driving habits has got a lot to do with how long they last when you have lots of HP.
No straight arm hole shots and watch catching too much air , keep the oil changed , use a drive shower and don't be beating on it all the time and you should get a number of good years out of them

Im running close to 600 hp and I beat the hell out of the sticks when when ever I have a chance. I do have a drive shower and change the oil every 20 hours. No problums yet . But I wont be supprised when it goes.

Gar,
A drive shower is a device that picks up water while you are running and showers the upper gear case to keep it and your oil cooler.

Cheapest and best cooling one out there
