Why do you think the BMax is a bad gamble? What have you heard, let us know. If this is scaring you I would start considering #6's and only #6's. :cool-smiley-026: Maybe I'll see you out on the water this year, you're not too far away. The water your boat is in counts for a lot , but who is trimming and on the sticks counts [B]more! [B] . Any shiftable drive drive that can't rate with the dyno rated horses we want to put in front of them , is a bad gamble to me . Once my motors come back down tuned to 900 hp for my xr's I'm going to try the Billet marine Drive Caps to see if this gamble holds together for me . If the X power Drive could live up to its claims then I could boost my motors and have a more sure thing riding on my transom ! #6's time will tell! this season is here and the only drives in sight for me right now are with a x and r on them ! I look forward to the possiability that X-Power can take the gamble off my transom instead of #6's . Nauti |

You have an edge since the Fountain is actually a 35' and is a lot lighter but only time will tell...
