In Response To: Sterndrive on a 31? (M Ruthstrom)

Magnus,

While I agree with the others & think that converting to stern drives on a B31 could be a waste of money, the way to go about the engineering is NOT by moving the engines, but by running long jack shafts back to the drives. Actually, Bertram may have done at least one stern drive B31, but can't tell from the file image what the placement of the engines may have been...

At least by this conversion the original configuration could be reverted back to without too much problem & your weight distribution would remain approximately stock.

Best regards,

Patrick
