People always think it is getting on plane with big wheels that kill the drives, sure you have to be aware but it is more common that on acceleration is when you break the drive.

Hope ur not in the prop business with that theory.

Not at all, just a regular guy who loves boating just like you. A while ago it was explained that way to me and I have always kept it in mind while driving my boats......knock on wood I have had goo luck with drives......if I am wrong by all means I will eat my words but it made sense to me and was simply passing along my theory. At theend of the day I am easy coming out of the hole as well as easy while accelerating.

Any one else have a different theory or advice? I am open to hearing as I obviously do not want to start chewing up drives...... :)

Hmmmmmm, I sure would like to test drive the right hand one of those on my cat :) With the snow all disappearing, I find myself looking at the shrink wrap and counting the days until boating season is back.

Did you send me a pm? Never got it.
