My 1984 CS36T sailboat is powered by a
Westerbeke 33
diesel coupled to a Borg Warner Velvet Drive
transmission series 1000, assembly 10-23-001, 1:1
gear ratio. Both are original
equipment with 5200 hours of heavy use.
I am currently aboard my
boat in Rio Dulce,
Guatemala. The
transmission will not engage and I am told it needs major
overhaul or replacement. I have been unable to locate
rebuild kits, used
parts, or a used transmission.
Can anybody out there point to a likely source for used
parts for this trannie?
