Bmax Skeg
 
Does anyone know or have a lower case for a poker run drive? Broke the bottom 10% of my skeg off yesterday, and wondering my options....NOT going to repair, trying to find a case, and will any other cases fit this drive?

THANKS!!:drink:

Imco will fit, ya have to use the bmax vert shaft,the collar and shaft is bigger.As thick as the skeg is on a bmax crescent lower figured it would be easy to weld ,even if its a temp fix,the casting i know has porosity

stock bravo will work with bamax vert shaft,

remember the colling passage in the foot cools the drive, they need to be drilled

is Dean out of foot castings?

10 % of the skeg is what-1/2"? Why would you be opposed to having it repaired for 100$ vs spending 1800-2500$ on a new on? Our local prop shop does skeg repair on the boat,when its done its a strong as it was originally,its only aluminum. 7 years ago I let someone else drive my boat and they dragged the skeg putting it on plane chewing up the first 1" of it,I had it welded while on the boat,it looked brand new afterwards. Until I bought my shortie a month ago I ran that lower ever since then even at 98 mph and its been fine. A few years ago I re-did the nose cone and sanded drive casing down,you couldn't barely even see where it was welded,Smitty
