The Trac Get Home Drive is a gearbox which is mounted onto your propeller shaft, it is hydraulically driven and designed to be a backup form of propulsion should you lose your main engine.

Driven from your vessel’s generator or alternate engine, hydraulic power is directed to your Get Home Drive, providing you with propulsion either forward or reverse for cruising or manoeuvring. As a continuous duty drive, controlled from a remote panel in the pilot house, the Trac Get Home Drive is a life saver.

Offering superior speed flexibility, we have used an exclusive split case design to allow us to change the gear set ratio and hydraulic motor without the need to remove the unit from the vessel, a huge time and cost saving feature. When not in use, the hydraulic motor is completely disconnected from the gearing, reducing wear, heat generation and drag.

Gear lubrication is achieved via a simple oil sump splash design, making the Get Home Drive robust and reliable, providing that peace of mind when you really need it.
