A rudder tuning is a great idea.

Now this may start some discussion, but when you put in the RH rotation engine with your nice easy steering and you let go of the wheel, it'll probably pull just as hard and fast to the left, unless somebody's done some crazy rudder tuning. It's from propeller torque. It'll do more to make the boat ride level though when you're all alone in the boat Lone Ranger style.

I would like to see photos of the engine if possible. I am very interested. Yes, I am in central New Hampshire near Lake Winnisquam. The boat ramp is a nice 15 minute ride from my house. My engine runs pretty well, but the boat needs great care while underway. If one lets go of the steering wheel while the boat is on plane, the wheel will pull all the way to the stop, hard right within three seconds. My hope is that a reverse rotation engine will put the boat back in order. |

Hey Frank, looks like your in NH?

That sounds like a great idea! Do you know if the engine mounts and engine/transmission will work with the prop shaft angle? I think the engine sits level in the boat with the PCM transmission in the boat? Do you know what sized prop I would need? I guess I should make up a list of parts that would be needed to do that.. Thanks for the idea!

Or you could put a PCM 1:23-1 transmission in it that will take the lefty motor to a righty prop.

Hello Burton. Do you still have the RR 351 engine for sale? Do you know if it had been overhauled in the past or if it is a PCM original engine? Any idea how much time is on the engine or how long it has been inactive? Do you have a distributor with the reverse rotation gear available with it. I have a 1984 Ski Nautique that someone put in a standard rotation engine in. It makes the boat pull very hard toward starboard when the boat in on plane and lists into a right bank about 10 degrees when operating the boat in a straight line solo. I think my boat would be a better boat if it is returned to a RR engine. My email is fbritton3@gmail.com; phone is 603-293-3828. I look forward to hearing from you. Frank Britton Sincerely, Frank Britton |
