At Backwater, we've always had a simple goal: to make the absolute best longtail motor available. The latest evolution in that quest is here -- the all-new SWOMP series.
The new SWOMP offers a boost in performance and reliability while also reducing weight. How is that possible? The direct drive system. Direct drive means full power transfer to the propeller shaft (there’s no u-joint using a portion of your HP) as well as less vibration. The new frame design also allows for a lower pivot point, which means an improved angle of entry into the water. All of this equates to more of your horsepower going where you want it. The new frame is so good that we’re now making it the standard SWOMP model for larger horsepowers (full tubular frame models will continue to be available as the SWOMP Classic series).

What's the difference between the New SWOMP and the SWOMP Classic?
The New S.W.O.M.P and the S.W.O.M.P Classic are both built incredibly well to handle even the toughest conditions. The main difference is that the S.W.O.M.P Classic uses a fully tubular design, while the New SWOMP uses a combination of DOM tubing and a CNC'd aluminum bell housing. The Classic has more traditional drive train geometry and uses a universal joint to connect the engine output shaft to the propeller drive shaft.
The new SWOMP is able to use fewer tubes to make up the frame because the primary way of connecting the engine to the frame is with the precision-machined Aluminum Backwater bell housing and single upper frame brace. Inside the bell housing the engine output shaft is connected to the propeller drive shaft with a straight, high horsepower single split clamping coupler.
The New SWOMP offers a few advantages over the SWOMP Classic. First the New SWOMP pivots off of the Backwater Bellhousing. This lowers the angle the prop enters the water which means more speed and power. This lower angle also allows the u-joint to be eliminated. Additionally, no u-joint also means more power straight to the prop and fewer moving parts. Pivoting off the bell housing also gives the driver more leverage because the handle length is effectively longer, making the New SWOMP even easier to drive. The final benefit is that it shaves off weight without sacrificing features that put Backwater motors in a class of their own. That said, we're still offering the full frame Classic because, well, sometimes you just like the idea of some extra steel in your machinery. Either way, you can't go wrong with Backwater.
