If you wouldn't mind could you please tell us what the total cost of the upgrade was so others as well as myself can get a realistic cost of doing something like this really is. And also what the resale value of your boat would be with these drives on it. I am glad to hear the docking is great with these drives. Also, how is the slow cruise on this boat for like night boating? Love the rooster tail that those babys throw up in the air!!!

For my application I also installed sea strainers and a larger steering reservoir which I purchase through CP Performance.
Don't forget the props - $5,000.00 per drive
The final installation cost is going to be around $5,000.00
Of course it's less expensive to go with another Bravo application. If someone is looking to upgrade to a superior drive, this is the way to go.
And remember, you have your existing drives to sell and this can help offset the costs.

Cruise speed - no problems, just get on plane and throttle down.

Honestly the whole package is a great deal. You get a stand off box, transmission, upper and lower Drive, NEW steering, NEW trim, much better prop technology, gain cruising speed and top speed, more fuel Effecient, STRONGER, plus you can sell your current stand off box, transom assembly, drive, prop, hydrolic steering, etc. Really the best overall bang for the buck drive on the market. Plus prob the best anyways!

And looks wise, you can't beat it either. That is one nice clean setup compared to the old one. SJAWEEET.

As previously stated in the thread the price is roughly $23,000.00 per drive. You would have to call Rik to get your negotiated price as there are other factors and accessories that are figured into that final price.
For my application I also installed sea strainers and a larger steering reservoir which I purchase through CP Performance.
Don't forget the props - $5,000.00 per drive
