Konrads are the answer. a replacement drive to bolt right to your existing Gimbal is less than $10,000 new with warrenty.
Just a note been building drives for over 35 years. Done lots of different coatings. Coating does not change the strength of a gear. It only helps with break-in. Hardness is what helps with strength. |
I had TRS on my 38 and the 3 blades were crap. No low end and bad out of the water. 4 blades worked better. Also, what power are you running? Up to 500 or 600 HP without blowers, TRS will hold up if maintained. Konrads are interesting, however, as noted above they are expensive as a swap over from TRS or even 3's if you consider their price in ratio of the cost of the boats that they are going on.

I've come to the conclusion that the best TRS mod is the Konrad.
I was trying to convince myself this was just a second boat and I didn't want to go overboard. Having missed 2 seasons with a stalled boat project, the thought of missing a 3rd due to a broken drive and searching for NLA parts in the end was just un-appealing. Especially considering the decent boating season up here is about 90 days and half of those weekends it's raining. Plus, now I can mount the blowers on the motors and still sleep soundly.:) Thanks all for the input! |
