vic008 17 Posted August 31, 2020 Share Posted August 31, 2020 Mine is 2003 shaft drive. Can you replace with DI 30 engine/saildrive, and bolt my gearbox on the back instead. Googled VP engine bed adapter (hypothetical) Quote Link to post Share on other sites

You'd purchase the D1-30 with Gearbox package and hopefully your shaft and prop will be compatible. https://www.volvopenta.com/marineleisure/en-en/products/sailboats/ranges/inboard-shaft/d1-30/d1-30.html Quote Link to post Share on other sites
