 GTR Electric reverse??
On the Gatortail promo video right at the 8:10 mark there was no reverse brake handle! Anyone heard anything about this? Not going to be too long and was going to build a CC rig and really didn't feel like jacking with the reverse pedal. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jhJoMP7xPXU&sns=em

 Re: GTR Electric reverse??
That would be nice wonder if we will be able to convert our older motors over.

 Re: GTR Electric reverse??
Really easy. Cost $ 500. installation off a hydraulic pump and converting the switch to a 3 way. top forward, mid neutral, bottom reverse.
Had my boat mechanic give me and estimate to do it. When he added his labor it was around $ 900 so I passed.
I'm sure GT could do it much cheaper than that during the assembly

 Re: GTR Electric reverse??
I would rather the leaver than the switch seems like it would get yanked out ur hand if it got cought on something and throw you out the boat. But he'll if they will make them like that I pretty sure there going to test the hell out of them .

 Re: GTR Electric reverse??
Even cheaper way to do it is get an electric trailer brake pump. It's for large trailers with disc brakes.

I actually had to watch it a couple times to figure out what's going on. He had already locked the lever in to place when the reversing clip started.

 Re: GTR Electric reverse??
GT is ALWAYS experimenting with new things guys.
Just because you see something on one engine somewhere doesn't necessarily mean it will be offered to the public.
