TheDriveStand and the DriveStandHD were developed by a marine technician with over twenty years experience working with marine stern drives and lower unit gear cases. Designed to provide a simple, easy to use solution to stern drive handling for both the boat owner and marine service technician, theDriveStand creates a stable, upright support platform for stern drives and outboard lower units when removed from the boat for off-season storage, as well as yearly maintenance or repairs. There are no tools or fasteners required for assembly, and no adjustments or settings to be made. Simply slide theDriveStand together and drop in your stern drive. 

TheDriveStand's several applications include

• Off-Season storage for boat owners and marinas. Why buy a rack that takes up valuable floor space when not in use? TheDriveStand can be disassembled when and will easily fit in a cabinet or drawer. Why spend your valuable time building something that may not last? You have better things to do. TheDriveStand's low cost makes it easily affordable.

• For a marina or service center needing to support multiple stern drives at a time during off-season storage or repairs, ten disassembled DriveStand's will occupy less space then one or two single steel stands, and far less space than a rack solution. TheDriveStand will also store your stern drive with the propeller still installed, and it's small profile allows you to stand many drives closer together. Reclaim your valuable shop and floor space whether you're using theDriveStand, or they're disassembled and stored until needed again .

• Simple stern drive support for mechanics. Why drag a heavy, oversized tool around the yard when one plastic DriveStand can be carried with your toolbox or in your truck.

• For mobile mechanics, theDriveStand will simplify stern drive maintenance and repair. Change one Mercruiser raw water pump while the lower unit is held straight and stable in theDriveStand and you'll never leave the shop without one again. Not that you'll have to, a disassembled DriveStand takes up less space in your truck than a two foot piece of 2x8 lumber.
