 Re: gd surface drives are a joke,
Bend the trim knob up a little and it'll create an updraft and the boat should go faster. Just saying

 Re: gd surface drives are a joke,
Well being that I've owned both, I'll say that the sd is much easier to drive, and I definitely drive mine sitting down. Apparently you have no clue what you're talking about.

 Re: gd surface drives are a joke,
Seeing as how yur having to borrow someone else's motor why bitch. Poor thing, a little tiller torque has him all fucked up.
You must have been doing something wrong. My 27 runs just as easy as the 31mb I used to own.

 Re: gd surface drives are a joke,
They should take the starter off so there's less to break. Just spin the prop like a old airplane to start them. So much more reliable.

 Re: gd surface drives are a joke,
Justin I was just messing with yu bro. They are a little more difficult to run since it doesn't have piwer trim but that's all I've noticed. I really like it. Lot of folks talk trash about em but that's no biggie. I'm not afraid to drive mine anywhere in regards to the dependability.
I may sell mine next yr tho and get a prodrive. Id really like to have reverse. Nothing against GD at all and you wont hear me bashing them. Probably would have bought pd in the bwginning had I known the skeg could be altered.

 Re: gd surface drives are a joke,
hahah i figured this would start some shit but i have had a pd and i currently own a gtr and if you have never run either of them and all u have run is a gdsd then ur livin in the dark because there a big pos. thats my opinion and im sure alot will favor in both ways but they are hard to drive if you have kicked back drank beer and driven the best. the reason i was borrrowin a his boat is because i was havin mine painted cant wait to get her back. i would rather push pole than run a go devil sd

 Re: gd surface drives are a joke,
How is it you GD guys moving pins and wrapping tiller handles so you can drive it in grass, or not get beat to death in the stumps any better than a GT guy pulling a pin to trim down deeper?
