Weismann Marine outfits
the Lucas Oil raceboat to run the Weismann In-Line Engine System. The core to the
system is the unique transmission layout, as featured
in Boating Magazine. Utilizing the Weismann surface drives and
transmissions, we were able to mount both engines facing each other in the
boat. This neutralizes the immense torque of the Mercury 525 Racing Engines
and also allows the engines to sit a foot lower in the boat compared to the
competition, drastically improving handling and safety.
