They are unreal looking. Looks like a #6 bottom (made out of solid chunk of alloy) with a single ram for trim at an angle going into it. I believe you need the same tranny set up that a #6 needs. I heard they are stronger than a #6 BTW. :eek: :eek:
http://www.weismann.net/wmd.html Weismann Marine Drive Design Specs: WMD It was designed to handle 1600 lbft of torque, diesel, gasoline, and turbine power. 315 lbs for the Drive and Gimbal - Lower polar moment, better handling. Two Stage Integral Dry Sump System - High efficiency, light weight oil. Rotates in either direction - Drive direction is handled in an internal drop box. 15.0" X-Dimension from input to output - Lower center of gravity. Steerable and Trimable - Strong, identical steering and trim rams. Spur Gear Drive - Greater efficiency at a substantially lower cost. Serviceable on the boat - Low maintenance, easy to work on, no special tools. Skeg is a Wedge shaped - Hydrodynamically more stable at high speeds. All parts are CNC machined in our factory - High quality and high precision. Plus or minus 20 degress of steering. 7 degrees of negative trim and 26 degrees of positive trim. The prop shaft is a speed master style 26 T 16/32. The drive can be run sub-surface or full surface. The drive can be run with fixed steering and no skeg for speed. Housings are hard anodized and painted for corrosion protection. Low internal parts count. |

Re: Weismann drives?
I only heard about them because I saw some on a Skater at the desert strom poker run. He ran 171 that day......His are just brushed aluminum, looks like a massive chunk of metal hanging off the back. :cool:

Re: Weismann drives?
There is a SCOPE member who has them on a 36 Nortech. My understanding is he is only having problems with them.

Yea isn't that all Sorcerer runs with those monster Racecrafter motors?

Re: Weismann drives?
These are some pretty amazing drives. I bought a pair for my 36 but never used them. They are brand new, still in the shipping crates, and include some very impressive gimballs. Since I plan on selling my 36 now, these drives are for sale for only $40K including all hardware, dropboxes, and gimballs.

Re: Weismann drives?
The dropboxes are setup for quickchange ratios. I have two different ones but will have to check on the exact ratios. 1.5 to 1 would not be a problem.

Re: Weismann drives?
Gentry Racing on the POPRA series runs em, i have never seen a drive break on his boat. Motors thats another story.

Weismann used to have another drive which reached further behind the boat like the Arneson. It was still a Z drive though. It's my understanding that drive did not have reverse rotation capability. |
Re: Weismann drives?
I was referring to Sorcerers speeds doesn't that boat run around 170.

By far the nastiest sounding motor I've ever heard in a boat. :evilb: |
