Showers..without a cloud in the sky???
 

Okay, I'm new to this whole Boating thing.. Green would be an Understatement. Can someone tell me in laymans/newbie terms what "drive showers" are for and what type of drive would benefit from one and why?? It sounds preventative..a Big Plus in my book.. I just haven't got a clue what they are??

They are pretty much a metal tube that has water forced through it and it spills it all over the top of the drive. They help reduce heat in the stern drive.

and no most folks dont need them.

So unless I was spinning the drive at extremely High rpms or running it under extreme loads, my 3 qts. Of Gear Lube plus the water being pulled through to cool the Motor it doesn't need any external cooling. Gotcha. Thanks!
