Hello,
Basically, the marine reversible reduction gearbox is either horizontal or vertical offset gearing c/w thrust pads inside.
Usually you can get the details / pictures from the gearbox manufacturer.

Here are some graphics I had, on gear boxes. Hope they help. There is not much mystery to them really. You can check out Twin Disc's website for some more info http://www.twindisc.com/MarineProducts/ ... ducts.aspx.

Renk (http://www.renk.de/) also has some good stuff online like this brochure http://www.renk.newsfactory.de/cms_medi ... ebe_GB.pdf.
