What is the sail drive and what are peoples experiences good, bad, or ugly.
Thanks

Talk to Farron over at Beta. He will
work up the options and give you an honest opinion on what is best for your particular use. Then after that, ask around on what others think. They really do a lot of homework when putting together the quote - much more so than other companies I looked at who just sent me a spec sheet on their engines and
price. Farron worked it up a couple ways and discussed with me the options and did a lot of the calculations of the
current motor size, prop size, etc. to ensure there were no surprises in the end.
And he never kept calling after the quote to pressure the
sale. Just asked to let him know if I needed anything else.
