Reversable Mirage Drive? - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

Have not heard that, there is the drive for the PA 17 that was designed to drop in forward or reverse, with added idler pulley on each side and squared pedals.

When I got back into yak fishing after a long layoff, inadvertently put my drive in backwards. Gave guys on the beach a real good laugh as I tried to get out thru the surf. Without a paddle (left at home), I just thought there must be a super rip going on. Whipped like a dog, I was on the beach and noticed a label on the drive that said something about making sure label faces you when installing drive. Pretty humbling but my next attempt was successful. Duh!
