I have been struggling for a long time with "dripless" shaft seals..that drip. Lot of work done by a competent yard, still a problem. I know that a number of owners use the dripless and it works fine, but I havent had that kind of lucik. Aligned the engines, still a problem and I don't want to pull shafts. Yard says traditional shaft logs are way more tolerant of not perfect shafts, props.
Yard recommending converting to teflon traditional shaft seals/logs that are easily adjustable.
Just wanting an opinion on the teflon traditional seal. I hear they are good, but want to hear what you folks have to say. Yard, that handles sizable boats routinely, says about 80% of the boats he works on are traditional shaft logs/20% are dripless.
Thanks for thoughts and opinions.
