    Awesome Stren Drive

    Just saw these and thought they looked great. Big and pricey, but if you want a scale look on a large boat - you can't go wrong.

      I ordered the trim tabs for my 51" shovel - couldn't resist them.

              now with your new stern drive.
              gear oil change every 100 hours only HI perf Merc lube, nothing else it will void your warranty, also only use the blue washers, yellow were re called.
              re towue your prop every 20 hours, check engine alignment every 50 hours and torque gimbal ring every 50.. etc etc only mercury PHhantom black provides superior corrosion resistance and always use a Mer-cathode!

                very nice!
                and the Chinglish owners manual is actually a dream to read through .

                I have a hull needing a pair of these in back of the shed right now ! .......

                Looks a lot like this.

                  In looking at both of these drives, I wonder which set of gears is better. The mhz teeth are angled and the arrow sharks are straight like the EP1's. Just curious!

                    Helical gears are quieter and can handle higher loads.

                      So Egneg would be better off buying three MHZ drives rather than the Arrowsharks eh???????

                          I got 2 pairs of the trim tabs and 2 stingers quite impressed with the quality and precision. I think Arrow shark is onto something.
