Re: No Vibration? - How did you get there?
Mine was pretty close to this description. I haven¡¯t gone on any trips yet but it¡¯s relatively quiet except for the sound of the spinning shaft through the hull and cutlass. I have not noticed

Re: No Vibration? - How did you get there?
Yup, I missed a spot! When I installed the shaft I did tighten up the packing nut, but just while I did the alignment. The packing will tighten up and center the shaft. Once the alignment was done I

Re: No Vibration? - How did you get there?
Hi all, The Browning gear drive is known for near indestructible durability for sure, A new one would probably last forever and a day on a electric boat. No disrespect to others but it will weigh

Re: No Vibration? - How did you get there?
Lots of us are refitting older boats, aside from the electric motor itself noises and vibration will most certainly come from Worn Cutless bearings. (Vibration) Shaft misalignment. (Vibration

Re: No Vibration? - How did you get there?
I ended up? bolting my motor to a Browning gear drive with c-face adapter. It's very similar to a Electro Prop system. The drive sits on a drop pan that can be adjusted by 4 motor mounts just like an

Re: First run
I heard a big difference in the sound from the permanent magnet motor I used to use (very quiet) and the AC motor I use now (sounds like a kitchen appliance). Both are still much quieter than the gas

Re: First run
Some people are more sensitive to the high frequency switching noise than others. I can hear the switching noise on my boat (DC perm mag motor, direct drive). Actually it must be a harmonic I hear as

Re: First run
What I did was change the cutless bearing then the stuffing box packing then lined up the shafts and installed the chain coupler. Without the drive belt installed. Then I had something to line up

Re: First run
Hi, Nothing stays put at sea! Batteries need to be tied down also, not just in a box just for everyday getting around. Now imagine a knockdown or god forbid a rollover. The best way to get it safe

Re: First run
Sounds like Matt and I may find better numbers once our shafts are better aligned then! With the batteries my primary worry is about them sliding around. The AGM are so heavy that they *appear* as

Well your basic power curve looks very similar to mine. I haven¡¯t been able to make adjustments yet but will report when I do. I have the Thunderstruck gear reduction/engine mount and am using

First run
?I am working on a larger write up but thought I would share some results from my first run. Main concern: it was too loud! I think the cutlass bearing was too worn when I started The project and
