I hit something that bent the prop and the shaft. My insurance covered what was about a $2,000 job. The yard checked the strut and as far as I know it was OK. I don't know if you have insurance or want to claim this, but it can add up in a hurry if the yard is doing it. The PSS carbon shaft seal and cutless bearing were replaced while all this was apart.

Other end of line was attached to a stanchion. Strut was bent and minor damage to stern tube. Suggest you remove fuel tank as suggested earlier and inspect stern tube carefully as well as shaft for any bends. Have some one check the alignment of the shaft with the engine as well once the strut is rebidded. Might also be a good time to change out cutlass bearing if it has any wear This was a $6000 job for us. We had a worn cutlass bearing which had a wear spot on shaft so those were both replaced (only due to the wear) and accounted for $2000 of this repair Mike Persistence Halifax, NS From: CnC-List [mailto:cnc-list-boun...@cnc-list.com] On Behalf Of Tom Alessi via CnC-List Sent: Monday, November 21, 2016 4:57 PM To: cnc-list@cnc-list.com<mailto:cnc-list@cnc-list.com> Cc: Tom Alessi Subject: Stus-List Fw: Strut Hey, Recently wrapped a line around my prop/shaft and found some damage and a loose prop strut when the boat was hauled.
