During this year's haulout, the propeller shaft, the cutless bearing, shaft packing hose, and the shaft side of the coupling were replaced.
On this board there have been a few comments about access to the space behind the engine. I thought you all might want to see how the mechanic at Sailcraft Services in Oriental, NC managed to install the coupling. He hung from his heels for a half hour or so as he worked.
