Every inboard ski boat I've been on makes that noise. It's all good!
You transmission is going to blow! stop using it now.....just kidding.
yes, every inboard does that. It does not have to be a v-drive. My old direct drive did that too. So does my new v-drive. They all do it.
My ski supreme direct drive does that too!
My new boat is so quiet I cant tell yet. Im so used to the old Saltare everything is so quiet now. Kinda weird. I wouldnt know if a belt was loose or anything.
my 09 vdrive is less noisy that my 99 dd was...but still whines a little........they just do it to let ya know they like going forward
