Re: transmission?
QC,
NOW that youve explained all this to me, it all makes perfect sense. I guess I just need to put the automobile mentality to rest when thinking of working on boats then huh?
You are dead on when you say "I am also guessing this is why you thought about a transmission. Due to your automotive background you maybe thought "if I can downshift, I could get her going better, and then up shift to run faster at higher speeds." But this is where I believe you are going wrong . . ."
Sooo, with this said, Ill get back here in a bit, just as soon as I get her in the water, and let you know how she performs.
Thanks again for all the info. Like I said, Im a "dummy' lol, when it comes to this boating stuff. Im soo used to automobile engines.
