Hi Chuck,
Maybe someone in the Louisville area can recommend a shop in your area to look at your drive.
If not, we have a great guy here in town (Nashville). Eric Betty @ EBM. He is excellent on drives. His # is 615-714-2944.
We are only 175 miles from Louisville. There is some construction on I-65 near Park City, but it's not too bad.
Regards,
Steve

thanks for all the info guys,ended up takin the boat to a guy from somerset ky recommended by a friend,turns out gear in the lower was split so be a fairly easy fix!everybody on here seems to run a 1inch spacer so im gonna go ahead and put one on while its apart.dont really get it just yet,nordics are rare in ky ,from what ive gathered id rate em like a fountain hull wise?am i totally off?everybody here loves bajas and powerquest but nordics seem like a better boat from what ive seen,i think the fountains are great performance boats and if i hadnt have got a nordic no doubt id have bought a fountain but the interior seems a little old school on the fountains

Glad to hear it is an easy fix! Personally I would rate the Nordics up there with the best of em, but I am biased. Design wise, there are very few Vs that look as hot as the Nordics. And the craftsmanship is top notch IMO as well Enjoy the ride, glad you will be back on the water soon!
