I don't know if this is brand-specific, or which brands were involved, but while I had my boat hauled out and was in the process of making a decision on what to do about the packing gland on my boat, 2 boats in the same marina had serious leaks due to broken graphite parts in their dripless pack

I agree with Josh, my PYI would be perfect if it could be changed without haul out! I am trying to imagine the circus in the rear stateroom of my 37+ if you tried this change in the water! The failure rate of this PYI system seems to be nearly negligible, the pressure on the mating surfaces i

I have a Max-Prop, a R&D coupling isolator, R&D engine mounts, and I have a PYI shaft seal - all the same company. I generally like the engineering and customer support and like the shaft seal fine. That being said, I would suggest taking a look at the Sailor Sam's shaft seal. As the vendor desc

Any 33-2 owners with the PYI dripless shaft seal? Will it fit? We're looking at overhauling the packing gland and considering replacing it altogether. Thanks, Adrian Humphreys ___ Thanks everyone for supporting this list with your contributions
