I wouldn't recommend that anybody spend the money to retrofit a surface drive to a single engine Bravo V bottom. If it was a 36 Nortech that was rigged with Bravos then sure, look at Arnesons or #6's but not on a 28 Scarab. Even if you replace the drive 2x a season for the next 3 years you will be $$ ahead staying with a Bravo style drive. I personally would recommend the Imco's. I have a pair on my Warlock with three seasons. I have replaced the gears once in the port drive.

We've got them on a lot of single engine boats, even a 28' Scarab. This is nothing rare. Our first boats we used as test boats back in the 70's were a 18' V Hull and we went forward from there.

A lot of peopel seem to think that Arnesons only work on Cats, but think about it, 90-95% of boats in the world are V hulls. We have far more V hull applications than Catamaran applications just purely b/c they are the most popular boat made around the world.

Voodoo math
 

Can you but a price on the down time and messed up vacations?:eek:

Hmmm...anybody know where I could get some info on Imco?

Ya .....ask Okie Tunnel:lolhit:

Google IMCO. Go two one of their websites, or talk to who sells you drive parts or who services your drives. You can also find one in the classifieds. I think there is one or two for sale right now.

Too much. I think an Imco SC is about 12k.

If you need info and pricing forIMCO products, give us a call 302-521-0123

Will do...Thank you! Its all worth looking into!!
