So I have had the shaft seal replaced twice in the last two years. I also had the shaft taken to shop to ensure it is straight. The first time was preventive maintenance and the second time it got messed up when a line got wrapped around it towing someone in. No good deed goes unpunished, right?
Long Story short It is still leaking. Not badly bilge comes on for a a couple seconds every few minutes after running it. It really doesn’t come on if it is just sitting at the dock. I know it’s not ideal but can this be tightened or fixed while the boat is in the water? Besides finding a new mechanic do you have any suggestions besides pulling the boat and starting over. This is starting to feel like an annual ritual. An expensive time consuming annual ritual
