Volga Hydrofoils Messageboard

Hi,

I don´t know if the thread is right in this section. But i think the Z-drive is part of power transmission section.
I don´t find any information about the depth of the drive. How depp is the drive under water. I need this, because I have to adjust my outboard engine and i think the underwater part of the drive is nearly the same as the one of an outboard engine. Thanks for help

I don't know the exact dimensions but you can use the foil for instance. The Z-drive plane (the foils above the propeller) must be no higher than the central area of the boat's rear foil. Hope this helps. My boat is with a V drive and the center of the propeller stays at around 18cm from the rear foil.

Hi, trank you for the advice. I'll try to take the engine as deep, so that I have the 18cm under the center of the foil. I will Post the result of it is possoble. Trank you.
