Because they could have went through 10 drives in that time period. I would expect those drives to hold up for a while in flat water, but I suspect they wouldn't hold up very well in rougher conditions behind those SC engines.

Remember this is that this is a light efficient hull...not a straight bottom big ass v hull. Meaning that when that when you hit the throttle it goes somewhere instead of just loading the **** out of the drives like a vhull water plow. BTW, I am sure they are XRs not just bravos.
I have not had a had a problem with my XR upper in my blown application and I'm sure I am way north of 600.

While the Bravo's have their weakness so will a heavier system drive on this boat. This is a narrow sponson narrow tunnel boat that was designed around outboards and their light weight. As you add weight to this boat (six drives and transmissions would be 800+ pounds) The hop range will increase greatly and cruising at low speeds will be less comfortable.
