Quick step to a Special Mention

A Special Mention in the "Machinery, propulsion, mechanical and electrical systems and fittings" category went to Newage Transmissions for its PRM Step Drive.

An automatic 2-speed gearbox designed to fit inside the Volvo Penta Duoprop 290 series drive leg, the gearbox gives, says Newage, a reduction at low engine speeds to give a massive boost in acceleration, reduced time to plane, quieter running, reduced running cost and much better close quarter handling and low speed running in restricted waterways.

For many boats, says Newage, the Step Drive allows the fitting of larger props than before. This further enhances a boat's top end and cruising speed.
