Thread: BROKEN B-MAX

  1. #1

    Does anyone know of any place on the West Coast that I can have my B-Max rebuilt? I broke the intermediate shaft (I think) last weekend. B-Max wanted me to send it back to them in Florida (very cool) and they would fix it for me. The only problem is I need it back on the boat ASAP. HELP PLEASE!

    That's a bummer about your B-max. I haven't hurt mine yet but haven't abused it too much either. Do you know if you did anything that caused it to break? You might want to try calling Greg Shoemaker at G.S. Marine in Corona at 909-2722-6060. He installed my B-max in my Carrera but I don't know if he can fix one or not. Good luck. Keith

    How much Horsepower are you running that it would break a B-Max?

    I'm curious how much horsepower you have! What's it in and do you know why your XR broke?

    Injected quad rotor making 1150.Craced my imco lower unit and i thought smoked my xr upper.After speaking with Gary Teague this evening, I may have got lucky!He said everything in my upper looks ok thus far.So hopefully its just the foot gears.
    After making a wide open run the boat was very hard to get out of gear, one hour later at about 40 mph it let go.I'm hopping for the best.The boat did run 116 on gps, not bad for a deck boat.

    I have 1k h.p. and I have had nothing but good luck with my b-max. The only problem with the b-max is that it eats a significant amount of h.p. But that is the price you pay to play the game. I would rather loose some h.p. than to kick down 7k every time you blow a bravo.
