bravo one drive wrong side?
 
ok i have a 35 fountain ex with 496's bravo drives.I just took off the props to have them tweeked for the winter.The starboard prop is on the portside and the portside is on the starboard side.I have owned the boat since new never have removed the drives.Is this correct or do I swap the drives? Or is this a fountain set up?

If what you are seeing are the props turning "IN", then it's a normal Fountain set up.

i dont understand question?? Do you take your lunch or walk to work?

ok lets try this the port prop is on the starboard side and the starboard prop is on the port side!The question is this normal on fountains?I do know if I swap the props around when you put forward the boat goes reverse.nope I drove to work and bought my lunch.

No such thing as Port and Starboard props, just left and right:grinser010:

I believe you are saying you heve a left handed prop on the starboard side, and a right handed prop on the port side, if so this is normal for fountain.

I still dont get how swapping drives has to do with props ?? if you put boat in gear and go backwards props are on wrong..switch em no?? easier to change a prop than a drive..
