Question Want to swap Bravo III for I or Blackhawk

I own a 1995 Cigarette 20'. Does anyone know why Cigarette only offered this boat with a bravo III or Blackhawk? Is there any problem with swapping the Bravo III for the Blackhawk or a Bravo I? Are the X-demensions the same? Are there any negatives? Any info will be appreciated.

Default Re: Want to swap Bravo III for I or Blackhawk

dimensions for a B1 and a B3 are the same. The BH is 5 inches shorter and the hull would need a fair amount of rocker to be able to use the BH successfully. The shortness of the drive removes drag but also the leverage needed to trim the bow up. They work well on cats and other hulls that naturally carry the bow high.

I happen to have a new Bravo One drive available, with Factory Mercruiser Warranty, if you have the need. It also happens to be the best drive for your application. I am not a dealer. I am a private party. Let me know. Thanks, Ed
