Efficient / Maneuverable / Unbeatable

Single or Twin applications up to 65 mph for gas enginnes up to 525 hp.

The twin-prop design says it all. Whether in a single-unit or twin-unit application, the Bravo Three is an efficient drive built without compromise. More than an upgrade from the Alpha drive, it has a mystique all its own. Perhaps it's the best-in-class shifting or its counterrotating propeller design - enabling agile handling in reverse for precision maneuverability. The Bravo Three is unbeatable.
