I have a 1974 marine clipper sailboat has a swing keel and I would like to do a v drive right behind the keel and off set the motor. I have a 787cc jet ski motor and have considered doing a jet drive. Any advice would be helpful aa I want to remodel for ocean use and using a small outboard kicker but have the ability to get inshore quickly incase of storms as I have a nice trailer for this boat I want a muti purpose boat and have big remodeling plans
Interesting concept! Would be fascinating to see what sort of v drive gear ratio you would need to run to keep the jetski motor happy without revving it crazy. I don't have any particular advice I'm sorry, but would suggest depending where you're located chasing some advice from any of the V Drive manufacturers and see what they say. Casale are still around in the USA as well as Argo and Haynes & Hellier in Aus. Good luck!
