Unusual perhaps, but quite nice when properly set up. Basically the same as the Aquadrives in many ‘hi-dollar’ boats, just using U-joints instead of CV joints. Also how things are set up on any good-size sportfish or motor yacht with a remote-mounted V-drive gearbox.
Hopefully there are guards around everything to keep your tie out of it while underway, and contain the pieces should anything fail.
