another boating question: any issues with v drives? routine
maintenance? winterizing? how's the performance vs. I/O, O/B or DD?


V drives are a failure point. *Probably because they are not maintained
like they should be. *If I bought an older boat with a v drive, I'd pull
it at the end of the season and go through it. *At least change the oil
and look close for metal shavings.


thanks jim...will have a look
