Same. Multiple people recommended running regular type drives but you convinced yourself this was the path to take and didn’t want advice.

Arnesons are ok imo. But all of the fastest V bottoms in the world still have 6s.

Ric is married to Carmen, owner of Aero marine windshields. Anyone know if Aero is having similar difficulties?

Chris back when we spoke last July and I tried to get you my Arneson kits that I was selling, you were warned by me. I conveyed my experience with him as best I could in a professional manner, never bash anyone on an open forum....but I have first hand experience with a similar disappointing outcome. Sorry to hear about your situation. Put it behind you and move forward. God bless.

Why didn’t you give twin disc a call? I have installed multiple sets of their drives and they have all been strong and reliable

Twin Disc has nothing to do with anything less than ASD8

This has nothing to do with Arneson vs #6. I could decided to put an alpha drive on there and if I payed for it I should have gotten it, or the refund after the parts cant be produced or whatever the real case is.
