Time to play silly buggers once more, this is POWERBOAT from june 1978, just about the heyday of powerboat racing, both circuit and offshore. In this edition there was a shedload of information and personalities. For the next couple of days i shall be bombarding you with forty odd year old events and happenings And personalities.
JAMES BEARD and ROZ KNOTT . Each month Bell Whisky would offer a Magnum of Whisky to the outstanding personality that month.
James was taken long before his time , he should be here with me enjoying his retirement. Friend of the nobility and us peasants.

Now, i am fortunate indeed to have the two engineers who made a mercruiser leg and bottom end stay together as friends to this day. Malcolm TYRRELL and Ian “Hawkeye” Hawkins. Both have been retired for a few years now . Malcolm retired from COSWORTHS. Ian had moved to the USA with ILMOR HAVING LEFT COSWORTH ENGINEERING .
Remember we had 400 horsepower going through that leg, so the first thing they did was to replace the splined shaft with a quill shaft , about as thick as your finger.
Next up was to make the gearcase do its job without failures . I had a temperature gauge and a pressure gauge.
Afraid i cant remember where i put my specs in the workshop, but i will ask Hawkeye for you.

...when you say replaced the splined shaft, i take it you mean the vertical driveshaft. this had to be a special length as well. i take it, it was an MC1 gearcase.
