Plum, these are regular bravos with hp gimbals behind blown 509's. I think the key is to not play "offshore racer" too often. I try to keep the props in the water as the re-entry can be a bit tough on the drive internals.

the 99' and earlier were built heaver and are not as fast as the 2000 and up. The bravo X will last if you are gentle with it. For biger power and harder acceleration I recommend either B-Max or Konrad both makes are excellent drives and will take lots of punishment.

Thanks for the insight guys. Looking forward to buying a 3100.

Has there ever been one built with Arnesons? Seems to me the ASD6-7 would be a good replacement for a B1.

The Max Worx outdrive is a stout unit. Put the boys from Havaseu on your Bravo replacement list.

I have #5's, that's the way I bought it. Next year will be pushing between 1100 and 1200 hp
