2020 Ocean X outdrives

John41

So I’m changing my crappy Volvo Penta outdrives on my 342 to the new 2020 Ocean X outdrives. I’m told that they are newly designed. Does anyone have any information of these new outdrives? What’s new about them? Cost?

I don't know what the 2020 version is like, but the 2015 Ocean-X is great!

Thanks Andy... I found out there’s no difference. The repair shop that replaced them were full of crap. Just trying to get some more money out me. I’m glad you say they’re great.

One caveat. Anti-fouling paint I had applied did not last long. I suspect the anti-corrosion coating was the issue. I have my diver clean the drive monthly, more often when the sea temps get warmer.
