375 Stinger,
Our new Bravo retrofit set up has a stand-off box. The transmission is located inside the box. The motor stays in the same location as a Bravo.
Retail price on the drive alone is around 9k depending on options. Warranty is 1 year.

No, not at all. That was a rumor started here on OSO.

I hit the road with Konrad last March, travelling around the country visiting performance shops and boat builders from Florida to Maine. Sales have been fantastic and we are really starting to get peoples attention with our rugged drives.
As for our warranty, as long as the drive is installed within our rated torque level (740 ft/lbs) we offer a one year warranty on the all 540 drives. Higher power levels with factory approval.
To answer your concern of parts availability, The Konrad plant stocks hundreds of replacement parts for not only the US Navy but the Dutch Military and Hong Kong police as well.
I'd really like to be able to help you. Where are you located and what is your current power level?

Engines have 600 hp each but shall be upgrated, depending on the typ of drives I can install under reasonable efforts.
Boat is located in Europe, so Konrad parts & services are hard to find.
Concerning the warranty I have doubts that Konrad will issue a warranty on an application that they couldn't have approved, commissioned or modified by themselves.
