[WHOOSH]

K:

Your shaft is probably metric and so your challenge is two-fold: how to remove the old bearing and then sourcing a correct bearing re: both OD and ID measurements.

The Najad folks are relatively small-volume builders and many of them have been with that yard for decades. Their sales & commissioning yard is in the tidy little harbor in Henan, on the island of Orust in Sweden. Were I you, I''d fetch their phone # (www.najad.com) and give them a call to get their recommendation on how to proceed. Even if I were being advised by my local yard, I''d like to hear Najad''s view of the task ahead of me. They may also be able to offer you a current source for a proper new bearing.
