What kind of drive is this?

I saw this cool looking drive and was wondering if anyone knew who makes it or if it's any good?

Don't know what it is, but by looking at it, does not look very reliable. The shaft size is greatly reduced to allow for steerage. I smell breakage.

yea that looks like something youd maybe use on an electric set up def not for a gas boat the stub shaft looks very thin it would snap in seconds most likely.

In other words what the guys are trying to say is that you don't see steerable outdrives like that in the gas/larger nitro boating world. (for a reason no doubt because they just don't work. If you want a steerable outdrive, get an RCM or stick with what works.:)
