You gotta be careful jumping off that swim platform.

I have a propeller guard for the drives.

Offers more protection than you will find on Mercury drives.

How do the drives counter rotate?

The rotation is handled within the drives themselves. One is RH and one is LH rotation with a standard rotation engine input.

Talked to Rick at Arneson and he said he can upgrade these to handle up to 1200 AND get you a TRS stand offf box to bolt directly on. Pricing seemed very reasonable.

Didn't know if you saw them in the classifieds.

I read another thread addressing that concern. Seems in a side by side powerplant configuation the notch is fine. In a staggered configuration (where the drives would be closer to the keel) the notch must be filled. Rik would know for certain.
