Marine Brochure - Twin Disc - #5

Docking under calm conditions can be a challenge with a conventional transmission. In the time it takes to shift from forward to reverse, boats traveling five knots can drift up to 13 feet. With QuickShift's immediate thrust and slow speed control, the move­ment ofthe vessel is contained more precisely and easily.

Motor Boating magazine had singled out QuickShift® to receive its 2003 Editor's ChoiceAward, callingourtechnology "an excitingbreakthrough in slow-speed control for diesel-powered boats" that delivers "what trolling valves and two-speed transmissions can't: propellerspeeds as low as 50 rpm."

These unique variable speed drives provide boat operators with the capability to split and control engine power. Twin Disc MCDs incorporate a modulated clutch with slip control that allows precise control of propulsion and permits power-splittingcapabilities between propulsion and other critical activities—bow thrusters, fire pumps and winches.

Leading the industry in quality, style and performance, Twin Disc electronic control propulsion systems are designed to interface with all popular electronic engines and transmissions.

They are versatile, rugged and easy to install. With literally one fingeron one lever, the operator can control the boat's speed and direction. Multiple drivetrains and multiple control heads can easily be accommodated. And multiple electronic control stations can be placed around the boat.
