there are "other" places with vdrive information.  but for the most part its a bunch of old crotchety dudes bitching and moaning about not having the right strut angles and talking about their stuffing boxes.  i do enjoy a good rigging thread though.  vdrives look like their parts are just more fun. 

(my dads old boat, wish i could buy it back)

In all seriousness, I got bit hard by the boating bug even before my first ride in a v-drive.  After that first ride at about 10yo, I had the diseases.   One day I hope to build a v-drive.  One can enjoy both for what they are.  Whackers just can't scratch that itch like a v-drive or jet.

Cheers,

Joe

You are not alone sir! I have my old Hondo and I'm working on picking up a Bitz. Doubt either will make it to the river this summer though. I'll keep watching you make passes at the lower sandbar!

It all makes sense where you got your disease for intricate detail. Always amazing work on your boats.
