DIY surface drive testing 2

Testing actuators outside the hull, 10.5x12 prop at different trim angles. 24 mph.

I've been playing with this in my head and here ya went and built it!

I had to subscribe ... the future is here ... electric surface piercing prop ... super smooth

Don't know what it did to your boat, but the audio gave my sub a workout. :-)

Where did you buy the surface drive unit. I’m build a aluminum boat now. I. Was going to just hang a regular surface drive mud motor. But if I could find this drive system this could be a game changer. What’s the name for this type surface drive? Great video

[@ScarabChris]

Wow that's really nice running. I was wondering how you got it on plane so quick but then I see this is electric which has instant torque. Nice job. Electric technology has come a long way and can now be practical for many more applications....but it's still way to expensive for most. Be nice to see this in a larger scale like on a 30' boat with twin electric surface drives.

I'm running v8 pro xs but I'm actually looking forward to electric. Imagine 600hp with 2000nm torque in the same footprint as a v8 !!

[@chanelkuini5883]

Wow very good Vidio

[@TsunauticusIV]

Sounds like there might be a balancing issue. Did you balance your prop after mounting to the shaft?

[@Zzeke]

Awesome.

[@doncarlo5]

20 mph is perfect for wake boarding ....what's the power output of the electric motor ....in KW ?

[@gabbermaikel]

is this project stil on the water? Have been watching these videos a few times over the past year, might try to build 1 as wel.

Esse tipo de rabeta aqui no AMAZONAS seria demais como faço pra comprar e se é única para qualquer hp

[@pavelafanasyev1917]

how did you make surface drive? do you have any drawing?

[@daypass69]

I guess if all you care about is throwing a rooster tail cool.

[@budman9327]

Bond james bond Rooster tails are just a happy byproduct.

[@Mad.Man.Marine]

You obviously don't have a clue of how surface drives work and how efficient and fast they are!!!

[@jumper5029]

I was thinking about shallow water, but hey I like rooster tail
