I thought you had a TRS drive?

I have heard that they can improve speed (not 15mph) and handling but they also put a lot of stress on the transom assembly.

No TRS - I got a Bravo - with a 598 on a 1985 24' - Superboat just looking to get more of the rear end out of the water she sitting low even at high speed. Thought a stern lift may help.

It might...
I've been thinking about an extension box on my boat for a couple of years now.

I would really be interested in that project. I have thought about this also but was told the cost would not justify the gains. Hmmm?

I talked to a few people about extension boxes - all were positive - the people who currently had them seen an average of 7 MPH gain ? and brought the boat out of the water more: ANYINFO on stern Jacks would be helpful
