By the look of it, it ran on the rocks and was thoroughly pounded by seas. I seriously doubt if a single bit of the electrics beneath the masthead...
How much are they offering you to remove it?
Can you post a picture? I have read reviews where they have a proprietary seal but dripless seals are mechanical seals so will have a rotor and a...
Good point J. I (maybe incorrectly) just assumed it was a PSS seal.
The rotor is the stainless steel part that is fastened to the shaft with set screws. Secure your dial indicator on some part of the hull and zero...
Check the shaft seal rotor on its circumference and along the forward face to see if it is cocked or is displaced radially. Even if the shaft is...

It is already illegal to discharge raw sewage from a boat and it has been for ages. Linking the two issues together is political BS. Blowing...
Then you might think about a much larger boat. Give these guys a call. http://www.heliriviera.com/welcome.html
So, who should go first? The city managers, the water treatment chief, the mayor, the governor? Just Google "sewage spill Maryland." They just...
A very astute friend of mine just suggested that perhaps this Son of Magellan need only tag along in the wake of one of his fellow navigators....
Touche' :D
About the same amount as a complacent old graybeard. When you are looking at lower level USCG licenses that doesn't really apply, these guys...
