Boating forever changed The Twin Disc QuickShift® transmission system has forever raised boaters’ expectations of their crafts’ performance — and their own. No other transmission offers such shifting speed, smoothness, slow speed control, precision boat handling and safety. Combined with the Twin Disc EC300 Electronic Controls, the QuickShift system provides unparalleled boat control under all conditions. One for all Twin Disc designed the QuickShift system from the ground up to be a totally integrated system of transmission, valves, actuators and controls — all engineered to precisely fit...

The QuickShift transmission line combines the renowned Twin Disc pedigree of performance and reliability with new, patented actuation technology. We didn’t simply take our traditional transmission design and add electronic gizmos to simulate the performance we wanted. We re-engineered our transmissions to incorporate and integrate a unique clutch, actuation system and electronic controls. This total design concept resulted in a transmission that not only responds so much faster and smoother than any other transmission, it offers easily customizable shifting parameters and adjustments. It...

The Twin Disc QuickShift with its patented GP valve engages in 0.05 seconds, compared to a standard marine transmission’s 0.75 seconds, due to clutch fill time. QuickShift achieves full torque in .2 seconds, compared to a standard transmission requiring 2.0 seconds. A Twin Disc QuickShift transmission with e-Troll has a clutch response after approximately 0.05 seconds, even when operating in trolling mode. This is in excess of 100 times faster than any conventional transmission with a conventional trolling valve. Simply put, the QuickShift system shifts a lot faster than you do under any...

This is the building block of the QuickShift actuation system. The Twin Disc-developed GP valve combines advanced hydraulics with electronic technology, forming an actuation system consisting of two proportional solenoids and electronic profile generator (rate of rise). This simple, “bulletproof” design comprises just 21 off-theshelf parts. The engineering used does not require any adjustment due to extreme tolerances required by delicate components. It’s robust, reliable, and effective. No shims, no springs, no orifices are required to install it nor to adjust it. This means there are no...

The QuickShift transmission and GP valve, combined with the sophisticated EC300 Electronic Control System, is the ultimate control configuration. It provides you fingertip, single-lever control of engine speed, prop speed and direction plus instant full power — or any desired degree between idle and full — as fast as the engine can respond. Factor in propeller control down to 50 RPM or one knot boat speed and just imagine how much easier and safer docking or any slow-speed maneuvering will be. While the EC300 system is fully compatible with all popular propulsion options, it has been...
