CIG3....why move motors back? what will he gain from moving them back? just curious thanks

Scott (cig3) or anyone who might know,when cig went to the notch transom how much higher did this allow the TRS drive to be mounted compared to the flat transom TGs? Thanks

Just say no to Bravos.

Have a lot of people had trouble with Brovos? My bullet and 43 Bt both have them and I never had any trouble.

Bravos/TRS
I converted a 35 Awesome to Bravo's with mild 502's some time back and the difference was unbelievable the way the boat ran and handled. I just bought an 89' 20th Anniversary (#19)TG with TRS/502's and the transom notch so I will run it and see how that goes. I am thinking about Konrads as I will be adding power later on. Nothing wrong with Bravos' if they are set up right but if your a "Frequent Flyer" you might see some issues........My 2 cents worth

A full cabin Top Gun has 1100 lbs or liner and interior in the bow. This make them slightly nose heavy. Moving the engines back 10 inches is like moving 1000lbs back. This helps counter the bow weight.
