Re: Finally done

Hi Mark !

The world is not so big,this is my boat.
It`s a bad pictures of the boat,the guy beefore me had
diesels in it,but he never change the gear ratio in the
Arnesons, he never got this right,It`s still the gas gear
ratios in the Arnesons from the time the boat had
big V8`s. I have to do this right,not only trying difrent
props,you know that`s never a happy ending.

Try Rik at www.arnesonindustries.com

He is the big US rep. Twindisc in Racine, Wisconsin may have a local distributor for these parts in Norway. Diesels could be a great set-up. The 2 speed trans set-up might be the answer to get it on plane. What does the boat weight with Yanmars in the boat? I heard 2000 hours between tune-ups.

I also have the chains. Also there were two speeds in mine and I changed them back. If you do not have a lead on the trannies let me know. It moves the engines forward quite a bit.
