Looking at an older boat with 3s,good,bad run it or replace them nd if so with what open to suggestions thanks

Run it and rebuild them when and if the time comes

Great drives bill, I took the bravos off the hawk and rigged it with 3's

The big shafts are very durable and can handle a high horsepower engine , older small shafts are good and can be updated to a large prop shaft to make them stronger if needed , I'd rather have either of them instead of a bravo

and like Rbesola said, and IF the time comes. These drives are very durable and are the go to drive and WAY WAY above any bravo drive

There staying on the boat !!!

If you decide to go another route...I'm interested in your 3's
