Swamp Shark’s Patented Rebound System

The Swamp Shark propulsion system consists of several key components: A CNC-cut, machined-steel surface drive; internal/external hydraulic Rebound System; and a specialized internal cooling system, all the completely original design.

The patented Rebound System, which consists of actuators inside and outside the vessel, allows the Swamp Shark drives too smoothly and automatically adapt to conditions. When the drive impacts a solid object, such as a log, stump, or other submerged hazards, it swiftly and smoothly “kicks up” so that the propeller will not be impacted (the leading edge of the skeg features a Special radius designed to facilitate quick and smooth passage over any objects it encounters).

The Rebound System then exerts reverse pressure to instantaneously return the drive to its normal trim position as soon as the object has been cleared.
