Hi all. Today I have taken my narrowboat out for the first time in a year. I'm currently moored on the canal and am stranded. Today when on the water there was some loud clunks when shifting into gear. The boat then stuck in gear and I ended up crashing into a lock. Traumatic experience... I have just discovered I have no oil in the PRM 120D2 gearbox. Can anyone advise my next step to fixing this issue please? Is it as simple as adding more oil? Many thanks, Jason

Hi Everyone I don't no if someone could help me . I've been trying to find a Borg Warner Velvet expert to answer a question have. I have a twin engine boat which I've modified to take to the French canals next year when I retire. At present both props are r/h and I want to covert my R/H transmission to counter rotate. I've researched and found that the rotation direction is selected from the reduction box bolted to the rear of transmission. I've acquired a counting rotation reduction box and was hoping to just bolt onto my transmission but the only difference I can see is the oil return pipe from the oil cooler. On my current transmission the oil return pipe goes into the top of the reduction gear yet the counter rotating reduction gear has the return going into the transmission . I need to be cautious as my 1st trip after sea trails is across the channel. Hope someone can direct me in the right direction. Regards Steve
