Hi All, We have the above currently installed and is time for a replacement as gear box broke and lack of service parts available. I am trying to identify a direct replacement with regards to the 185 tunnel currently fitted.
My problem is until the boat is out of the water there is no way of knowing the drilling details the current tunnel has for the BP800. The manual gives the hole sizes for the center shaft and 2 bolts but does not give the distances to each other. It would be helpful to know these measurements to enable the replacement to be purchased and ready for a quick swap out.
So as anybody got this info or have a old gearbox these measurements can be taken from, or has anybody replaced a BP800 with a suitable make/model without any mods to the tunnel.
Hopefully some help is out there.
