New Sport Master gearcase

The handling and performance characteristics of the Mercury Racing Six Drive are now available with the new Sport Master gearcase option on Bravo One XR sterndrives, offered in standard length and a shorter version for mounting at surface-piercing height.

Designed for boats capable of 90 mph and more, the Bravo One XR Sport Master features a modified wedge skeg shape with larger surface area, modelled on the race-proven dry sump Six Drive.

The CNC machined onepiece gearcase housing and skeg provides a perfectly straight and symmetrical skeg for better directional stability and control at high speeds.

Hydrodynamics are enhanced by a longer torpedo which raises the blowout speed. A four-slot low water pickup provides optimum engine cooling and reduces the danger of taking in debris.

Heavy duty internal components include a onepiece billet aluminium bearing carrier and stainless steel propshaft. A bolted aluminium splash plate over the propeller features a sacrificial anode for added corrosion protection.

Gear ratio options are 1.26:1 and 1:35:1 in right-hand or left-hand rotation.
