you still running the stock bravo 1's?

5050

Yes sir. If or as other people that are on here say when it breaks a drive, I can replace or rebuild for $600 to $1800. Xr will break as well as bravo1 but a lot money to replace or repair. No issues as of yet. If I ever do change drives I'll switch to konrad ace on boxes with a trans or imco. Testing some 32 pitch props in a couple weeks.

5 years later, how did the boat go in those last years 5050? engines still strong? drives still holding up?

5050

Running great, about 60hrs on engines and drives bravo 1’s 32 4 blade. 5800 in 90 degree heat and
60% Humidity, runs 90,91 any day of week. 70’s and 10% humidity will spin 6000 95gps. Knock on wood no broken bravos yet.

Good news! But sad to read only 60 hours in 5 years!!!

3 seasons on new engines. Really only 2 summers. Last year lakes here were all flooded and only went out 4 times.
