What are surface drives, and how do surface drives work?
Put quite simply, surface piercing propellers operate half in and half out of the water in the planing wake region of a boat just behind the boats transom.
Having the propeller at the surface level reduces drag and reduces the vessels draft, making the surface drive suitable for many applications where the owner is looking to reduce fuel costs, increase speed and create a more efficient vessel.
This system has been proven and adopted by many government bodies.
