    anyone know about how much these go for? i'm thinking of the conversion kit they offer for a bravo to surface drive conversion its the small one. i just think that a ski boat that does 80 with a rooster tial would be cool.

    going through the same thing now . I am considering converting the jet drive in my boat now to a surface drive. I spoke with the guys out at Arneson and the person I realy needed to speak with , his name is Rick is out until Monday . Seems to me the price is not that bad considering it can be cheaper than a typical outdrive unit that will survive under the same HP and torque the motor puts out.

    I looked into this awhile back. Other than some hydraulics needed, the stopper for me was some "flesh-unfriendly" hardware hanging pretty close to my swimsteps.
    On my old, heavy boat...the performance gains probably would have neen minimal.

    Take out the stereo gear. I bet that would increase your speed by a few mph!
