Default Heart of Gold Gets an Ouchy

The Drivesaver is not meant to protect your shaft, it protects the
transmision and engine. Once again something you may have heard of
but
know nothing about.



Wrong agaiin, Martin. I spoke to the folks at Drivesaver and they
claim that shaft damage is less likely with their drivesaver. They
make zero claims that ANY component will be protected 100%, but a
light strike to a propeller can be abosrbed by the drivesaver.
Looks like it did protect the tranny, but we'll never know for sure.
I guess we won't be seeing any sailing shots from you this year, right
Martin? Oh yeah...you don't have to "prove" anything!
