Do you mean the bit with the swirl on it?...like a bendix

And do you know if it's unique to the XR drive? it may be the same part as a regular Bravo, and would be a hell of a lot easier to get if it was.

And of course, why do you need one?

i didnt hit any thing i just went forwards and backwards a couple of times , no bang , no noise just couldn't get drive... took the boat out and spun the prop by hand and it was tight on the shaft...... slit the lower casing off and found the upper shaft had sheered just above the barrel that joines the upper and lower shaft together

If it's the same as a regular Bravo, TD probably has one

yes had a good look round it last wkend it was next to that looovely ciggie mistress nice combination...

the hull had all been repaired and polished up...
it is a lovely looking boat shame its made out of papermasha (spelling?)

surely leaving hp500s for 3 years without any use is gonna cause long term problems??
