ABSTRACT:
A marine gear assembly has a housing with a disengageable and removable end closure and has a pair of countershafts, transfer gears and a pair of clutches which provide for transmitting drive from an input shaft to an output shaft in either of a forward drive mode and a reverse drive mode. Disposition of the clutches in coaxial relationship with the countershafts and in positions adjacent the removable end closure of the housing enables the clutches to be more easily inspected, serviced or repaired without requiring removal of the marine gear assembly from the normal operating site between the engine and propeller shaft of a ship.
