I agree, I like simple. I can fix it anywhere, or get anybody else even
remotely familiar with it (which is anyone at any boatyard) to fix it. If  my
cutless bearing takes a crap I can pump it full of polyurethane and keep
going. As far as that goes, I can just slow that shaft down and keep going,
maybe another few hundred hours until I can get it hauled. But, this setup is
noisey, and vibrates some. However, I know what my engines sound like and when
they make a different noise (like crossing a rip) I check them. AND, my motor
mounts will survive a rollover, possitively, I might not !!!> From:
