Thats seems odd? How the heck could it have bent?

is your shaft bent or does it just point to the right??????

might explain that "tennis elbow" that showed up thirteen years after your last tennis game??????

Well i got the carb jetted and am 1 step closer to getting the hatch done. just need to pre fit and paint and I'm done..

grinding out for the flame arrestor was a Fu(kin biatch.

or is loose. don't run it intil you have the problem fixed. That is how the 46 Sea Ray I purchased sunk.

I am gonna pull the props off next week and start from there. Mike at Inland marine said the set screws in the coupler were tight, that the vibration grinded the shaft loose, my packing is also leaking, or I should say pissing. What happened to the sea ray?

....nice, quit sending me porn and maybe my tennis elbow will go away, and so will "Pearl Harbor"

I heard Wstultz is building "Thunderboat Row II "

Now theres an idea.

Tom will explain better, when he gets here,, but I believe the shaft bent and some how threw the propeller up through the bottom of the boat. but dont quote me on that.

The packing will always leak. They are made to do that. As far as the Sea Ray the previous owner lost a blade on the prop. Instead of brining it in on one engine. he contiued to run it. It vibrated the shaft bracket loose. Then sent the bracket through the bottom of the boat.
