I am getting into the boat and trying to address some issues that I know I should have paid more attention to in the past couple of years but the simply I can not change what I should have done only accept responsibility for it and move forward - right?
I am looking at the shaft and stuffing box (repacking the box was on my list) but as I see the shaft I am concerned about this white build-up on the shaft. I have not had a chance to actually handle it but will be doing that this weekend. My question to the community is how bad is do you think? I am not experienced with the drive train and the boat is in the water so if I need to replace it I would need to pull her
I have read through some of the threads but do not see any that relate to what I am seeing (Sorry if I missed something) so I am hoping for a little support from the community and some honest thoughts about how bad this appears.
