Thanks, but ...
Thanks Al, you’re the Man! That was very helpful as I didn't know the prop shaft could move fore and aft in the stuffing box.
But my propeller will only move about +/-1” aft before it hits the rudder. Also my boat is in the water and I’m hoping to not pay for a haul out until next year.
Maybe if I can open up the gap by +/-1” I can get the wire out. Also can I move the flange on the propeller shaft aft as well?
Thanks,
Mark
