Check out these sites for drives, both use marine transmissions inside the
boat which is the best way to go.

I'd like to get a bunch of opinions on a power boat that may be coming
into
my possession. It's a 30' off shore power boat hull. I'd like to know what
my drive options are and if anyone has opinions on the following. My idea
is
not to go super fast so forget that, I live on the great lakes and just
like
to play and motor around. Some skiing and tubing. Does anyone have a space
where I can post some photo's?

1) Motors (I love diesel BUT)
2) Drives?
3) Props
