Default TRS or SSM3?



Are these TRS w/nose cones or 3's?

Looks like TRS to me.

#3 has a much narrower lower casing

My vote is for TRS as well. Boat is an 86. Need as much feedback as possible. It may be long distance purchase.

TRS with nose cones. (That dont seem to be installed to well) 3's have a smaller bullet diameter

I agree on the TRS and the bad nose jobs. Nice blending, not! WTF are those wide fins? Home made whale tails? Good steering system though, Clean then up, take off those tail fins and looks like they need a set of skeg guards, must be running in some shallow sand.

Default trs vs tr vs gr. 3

The easiest way to be certain is to measure prop shaft diameter. trs is 1 inch, tr is 1 1/4 inch and the 3 drive is larger still. From the picture it appears to be trs.

The wide fins are an illusion. the TRS has two cavitation plates, one above the other about 3 inches apart. (Top one isnt really a cavitation plate but I dont know what else to call it) The angle of the pic just makes it appear like a whale tale.

Those are TRS, I have a set for sale. Keep the hp under 500 and they will last a long time.
