Collin sheared his off a long time ago too. This makes the second one I've heard of out of 7,000+ motors. Not too bad lol

I still agree that you should have to pass a basic test to be able to buy a mudmotor :lol:

Some people are just so stupid with boats!

I know your pard is upset and should be however he should send the pics to PD along with a phone call and give them a chance to correct a problem or use this info to build a better product. They are a good business and good folks too.

Simply to show that it was a violent impact that caused this.

Doesn't really sound like you are sharing a story at all. Sounds like you are telling half truth's and implying that this incident was the fault of PD. Did this guy slam into a tree sideways at WOT and rip the motor off the transom? If so, the messenger definitely deserves to be hung.

Collin hit a pipeline sliding sideways and ripped his off. The motors are designed to kick up you're going over something, but I don't think much of anything is gonna stand up to a side impact at full throttle. There is no give in that direction, something is gonna break.

I've seen some folks that can tear up an anvil with a rubber mallet in a sand box. Probably dragging it down a pot hole filled road 90 to nothing and allowing it to be a bobblehead and it finally gave up haha

The good news is the Prodrive has outstanding customer service. The insurance company can help cover the cost of the accident and PD will get you up and running
