The Transmission Story

For the skiboat application, the PCM Power Plus is a revolutionary innovation that sets the standard for inboard transmission design. The Power Plus features:

• Unique G-Rotor hydraulic pump for smooth, efficient shifting
• Aircraft aluminum for the lightest, most durable transmissions
• A compact, lightweight design to maximize performance
• Unique 9 degree down angle allows engine to sit level in the boat for improved efficiency.
• 1.23:1 reduction angle measurably increases acceleration.

The New Power Plus Vee for Wakeboarding

Today's sport-specific wakeboard boats are too far advanced to rely on V-Drives that were invented decades ago for the cruiser and offshore markets. Those designs are too big, too loud and just plain too old. PCM is the first manufacturer to design a V-Drive propulsion system specifically for unique demands of the wakeboard boat.

• The PP-V’s compact design allows for more below deck space (ie ballast), along with increased room in the interior.  
 • It's unique positive mounting angle allows the engine to sit close to level during wakeboard runs, eliminating oil starvation, improving efficiency and adding durability.
• The through-shaft design makes service and realignment simple.
• The AGMA Grade 11 gears found in helicopter gear boxes and in your PCM Power Plus Vee are the most durable available.
• Paired with the PCM Power Plus, shifting is smooth and super-quiet – in forward and reverse.
